Jason Lamar limped in from middle position, Jay Kerbel limped behind from the hijack, a player from the small blind limped and the big blind checked.
The flop came 8?7?4? and action checked around to Kerbel who bet 1,000. The blinds got out of the way while Lamar made the call.
Kerbel bet again when checked to on the 9? turn and this time Lamar quickly folded.
Kerbel revealed the 6?5? from his hand for a flopped straight flush before taking the pot.

James Woods folded from under the gun before the next player to act made it 1,100. The hijack called as did Ryan Roeder from the big blind.
On the Q?8?4? flop, Roeder checked before the original raiser bet 2,600. The hijack folded to put the action back on Roeder.
Roeder made it 11,700 which sent his opponent into the tank. Eventually, the latter folded, and Roeder took in the small pot.
Roeder was kind enough to table his hand of A?Q?Q?3?, which was good for top set along with a pretty nice low draw.
"Is that all?" asked an impressed Woods. "Is that all you had?" he laughed as the next hand began.
PokerNews spoke to the actor earlier on in the WSOP, where he made a strong case for his friend, "Miami" John Cernuto, to be inducted into the Poker Hall of Fame.

Mike Matusow was recently knocked out of the tournament.
As recounted by his former tablemates, Ryan Conrad opened to 1,200 from the small blind and was called by Matusow in the big blind.
The flop came Jx9x5x. Conrad bet for about half the pot, Matusow moved all in for about 8,000 and Conrad made the call to put Matusow at risk.
Mike Matusow: AxQx10x4x
Ryan Conrad: Jx5x4x3x
Conrad remained ahead with two pair when the turn came Qx and the river was a brick to send Matusow to the reentry desk and Conrad took the pot.

The action was caught on the flop, with around 18,500 in the middle on the 8?8?2? board.
Zhen Cai was in the small blind and his opponent was in the cutoff. The duo exchanged a series of raises, which resulted in Cai being all-in for his last 19,200.
Zhen Cai: A?K?9?6?
Cutoff: A?10?7?4?
Neither player had connected on the flop, but the 9? turn gave Cai two pair, nines and eights. The 8? river kept Cai ahead, and he took in the pot to double up.
