Nick Eastwood opened to 2,500 in the cutoff, with Neil Benardout calling in the small blind and Ian Simpson defending his big blind.
Action checked to Eastwood on the 6♠7♥A♦ flop, sliding out a continuation bet of 2,600. Simpson was the only caller to the 4♦ turn, where both players checked.
Simpson then led out for 5,000 on the 7♠ river, sending Eastwood into the tank. After taking some time, Eastwood tossed in the call. Simpson showed 9♠8♣, while Eastwood tabled J♥8♥ to take the pot with his jack kicker.

Life Outside Poker is a new podcast for PokerNews hosted by Connor Richards that seeks to pull back the curtain on poker players and allow viewers and listeners to get to know them on a personal level.
In the 18th episode, Connor speaks with author and psychologist Maria Konnikova about her family leaving Russia to come to the US, writing her first story in kindergarten, being mentored by Steven Pinker at Harvard, meeting Erik Seidel for the first time and her 2020 bestseller The Biggest Bluff that explored her poker journey.
Konnikova, a PokerStars ambassador, also talked about her research for an upcoming book into cheating in poker and other games, as well as game integrity rule changes implemented at EPT Barcelona that Konnikova said needed to go even further.
"I think what PokerStars has done is amazing. I think you need to go a step further and not have any electronics anywhere on the table," said Konnikova. "Like, I think phones need to be on the floor, in your bag."
"I would actually also ban sunglasses because ... there's so much technology that (that can enable cheating)."

David Lopes opened to 1,300 from under the gun and Abby Merk called on the button. Jamie Dale defended his big blind to see the 4♦3♦5♠ flop.
Action checked around to Merk, who fired 2,500. Dale was the only caller and the K♠ turn was revealed. Dale checked and Merk bet again, this time 6,100. Dale moved all in and Merk took some time before committing the rest of her stack.
Abby Merk: 6♠6♦ 
Jamie Dale: 8♠7♠
Merk held through the Q♦ river, earning the double through Dale.

Nigel Lee opened to 800 in the cutoff before Mark Wagstaff three-bet on the button to 2,600. Action folded back around to Lee, who slid out a four-bet of 6,000.
Wagstaff did not take long to move all in, with Lee immediately calling off and at risk.
Nigel Lee: A♣A♦
Mark Wagstaff: J♠J♣
Lee's pocket aces held through the 3♠6♣7♠ flop, while the 5♠ turn brought Wagstaff a spade draw. The dealer turned over the A♠ river, giving Lee a set but completing Wagstaff's flush to score the knockout.
