After a preflop betting bonanza, Ping Lin, Christian Cheng, and Leocir Carneiro get all of their chips into the middle, with Carneiro covering. 

Christian Cheng: Heart 7
Ping Lin: Club KClub Q
Leocir Carneiro: Spade ASpade 10

Carneiro is in the lead with the better ace-high, and the flop of Club 3Club ASpade Q improves him to top pair, best kicker, it also gives Lin a pair and the nut flush draw. 

Sure enough, the turn is the Club 6 to give him the nut flush and leaves his two opponents drawing stone dead. The board completes with the Club 8 and the pot is pushed Lin’s way while Cheng hits the rail.

Ping Lin – 95,000 (24 bb)
Leocir Carneiro – 51,000 (13 bb)
Christian Cheng – Eliminated
