Roger Hairabedian: (X)(X) / {8-Diamonds} {3-Diamonds} {6-Spades} {Q-Spades} / (X)
Jason Young: (X)(X) / {5-Spades} {5-Diamonds} {9-Diamonds} - fold
Ali Eslami: (X)(X) / {K-Spades} {A-Clubs} {K-Diamonds} {10-Hearts} / (X)

Picking up the action on fourth street, Jason Young bet his open pair of fives and Ali Eslami raised. Roger Hairabedian called and then Young also called. On fifth street, Eslami picked up a pair of kings and took the lead. He bet out, Hairabedian called and Young folded. Eslami then bet on sixth street and was all in. Hairabedian called.

Eslami tabled the {K-Hearts} {4-Clubs} from his down cards for trips with one card to come. Hairabedian showed the {5-Clubs} {2-Spades} for a low and was drawing to a straight. Hairabedian pulled the {7-Clubs} and that meant the two would chop the pot. Eslami pulled the {K-Clubs} just for good measure to make quads.
