Ben Bianco Eliminates Two to Clinch the Chip Lead

In the final minutes of the day, three players get it all in at Table 1 after a flop of [7s3s3h], with more than 200,000 in the main pot and the side pot combined.

The short-stacked player has 7-6 offsuit for two pair, sevens and threes, and the mid-stacked player has [9h9s] for a higher two pair, nines and threes.

But Ben Bianco has [KcKs] for an even higher two pair, kings and threes, with the highest backdoor flush draw to boot.

The turn is the [4s], the river is the [6c], and Bianco wins the pot with his pocket kings to eliminate both players and effectively clinch the end-of-day chip lead.

Ben Bianco  –  389,000  (648 bb)

Allyn Shulman (who was in contention for the chip lead — and a free pair of Monster Headphones) came over from the next table to say, "I want to see who I lost the headphones to."
