Blinds: 3,000/6,000 Big blind ante

Matt Alexander raises in middle position, and Steve Belland moves all in from the hijack. It folds back to Alexander who quickly calls.

Alexander: A♦A♣

Belland: A♥K♥

The flop came K♣9♦K♠ giving Belland the lead with his trip kings.

The 9♥ turn improves Belland to a full house. Alexander needs an ace on the river, but it's the case K♦ that arrives on the river giving Belland quads to win the hand.

The dealer counts out Belland's 254,000, and counts the equivalent out of Alexander's stack. Both players are left with healthy stacks as we near the money bubble/end of the night. There are currently 26 players remaining, with 22 making day 2 and the money.
