Barney Nails Flop; Masters and Gaviao Exit
Carl Masters opened to 20,000 and was called by Jonathan Gaviao on the button before Joshua Barney three-bet to 87,000 in the small blind.
The action folded back to Masters who made the call and then it was Gaviao.
"I don't know what to do," He laughed and shook his head after over a minute of head-scratching. He eventually decided to make the call and the trio went to the flop of A♦7♠K♦.
Barney then set out a stack of 100,000 to cover both players and Masters made the call while Gaviao quickly mucked.
Carl Masters: A♥K♠8♠6♥
Joshua Barney: A♣A♠6♣4♦
Masters had ace-king for top two pair, but Barney had him crushed with aces for top set. The turn 9♠ did give Masters some life with a flush draw, but the river was the brick 4♥ to send him to the exit while Barney gathered the pot.
Left short, Gaviao exited soon after to Barney who chipped up to 631,000.
