After a flop of Diamond 10Heart 8Club 8, and Phu Vo moves all in from the small blind for 3,500. The UTG player calls, and Wendy Lu raises from the hijack to 12,000. The UTG player calls, creating a side pot worth 17,000.

The turn card is the Club 2, the UTG player checks, Lu bets 20,000, and the UTG thinks for a bit before he says she must have flopped it, and he folds Spade KDiamond K face up. Lu takes the side pot.

For the main pot, Vo shows Spade 10Diamond 4 for two pair, tens and eights, but Lu turns over Spade JSpade 8 for trip eights. Vo needs another ten on the river to stay alive.

The river card is the Diamond 9, and Lu wins the pot with her trip eights to eliminate Vo.
