Shane Chief shoved early, and Anthony Read reshoved next to act. Mike Malm was on fumes and shoved the button. Read covered everyone, but Chief and Read were both on suited ace-ten, with Chief on diamonds and Read on spades.

Malm was on a pair of fives, and looked to be out when the ten came on the flop, with two spades. Malm found the only five he could hit to survive on the river of 10♥3♠J♠7♦5♥ since the five of spades would have given Read the flush.

Read and Chief chopped the side pot, while Malm tripled from the main pot. Chief busted a couple of hands later.
