Action picked up on fourth four-ways after a series of raises resulted in Mike Leah being all in for 104,000 on third street, at risk against Daniel Negreanu, Matthew Beinner, and Naoya Kihara.
Mike Leah: XxXx / 3♦2♥7♦4♥ / Xx
Daniel Negreanu: XxXx / 8♠10♥10♦ - folded on fifth street
Matthew Beinner: XxXx / Q♥9♠2♣5♥ / Xx
Naoya Kihara: XxXx / A♦A♣2♦6♥ / Xx
Kihara led on fourth with open aces, getting two callers on the side pot. He led again on fifth, but this time only Beinner called after Negreanu folded open tens.
Kihara led two more times on sixth and seventh, with Beinner calling down both times. Kihara announced aces-up, tabling 8♦8♣6♣ in the hole, but Beinner had the winner with K♣Q♦Q♣ in the hole as he was rolled up, and he collected all of the substantial side pot.
Leah had A♥4♦ in the hole for a made low. A five would have scooped, but his final card was the K♦ and his low was enough for the half of the main pot.
