Tom Dwan: (X)(X) / {7-Diamonds} {K-Hearts} {6-Hearts} {8-Diamonds} / (X)
Matthew Ashton: (X)(X) / {8-Spades} {9-Spades} {J-Hearts} {Q-Clubs} / (X)
Jacobo Fernandez: (X)(X) / {A-Diamonds} {3-Hearts} {10-Spades} {9-Hearts} / (X)

When we arrived at the table, the action was on seventh street with around 550,000 already in the middle between the three players. Tom Dwan had tried to bet out of turn, but the action was really on Jacobo Fernandez with his ace high. He thought for a minute and then bet out. Dwan then called and Matthew Ashton called.

Dwan showed {5-Spades} {4-Clubs} {2-Diamonds} for a seven-six low and an eight-high straight. Fernandez showed {A-Diamonds} {10-Hearts} {10-Diamonds} for aces full of tens and was able to beat Dwan's straight for the high half of the pot. Ashton mucked and got chopped up by Dwan and Fernandez.
