This giant stud pot started with Mikhail Savinov making it four bets for four players to see a fourth card. Savinov made it three bets on fourth to put himself all in, leaving the remaining action to the other three. David Oppenheim bet fifth, and both Kevin Iacofano and Frankie O'Dell called. Repeat on sixth with Oppenheim showing jacks on board. Oppie checked the river, Iacofano followed suit, and then O'Dell checked his seventh card. He bet, and Oppenheim rocked back in his chair in disgust. He couldn't get away from it in a pot this big and threw in an unhappy call. Iacofano folded, and O'Dell showed for an ace-high flush to take the monster pot.
"Did you have kings?" Oppenheim asked Savinov as he was preparing to leave. Savinov showed and had indeed started with kings in the hole and improved to kings up. Oppenheim showed that he'd had buried queens and made queens and jacks, putting him in third place for the main pot and second for the side. But all the chips go to first place in this game, and Frankie O'Dell is now up to 124,000. Oppenheim was knocked back to a still healthy 120,000. Savinov hit the rail, and Iacofano followed him out a few hands later.
