Tyler Groth seemed to win nearly every pot he contested today, but Jesse Chinni eventually found his way to beat Groth in a hand that escalated to Chinni being all in on the flop.
Chinni was in for his remaining 77,000 and Groth had a chance to score the first knockout of the day.

Chinni had flopped the nuts, but his straight wasn't a sealed winner just yet as Groth hoped for a third diamond to make flush. The turn and the river didn't oblige, leaving Chinni doubling.
