On a heads-up flop of 7♦9♦Q♥, all of the chips between Dana Olson and Arnold Alaniz got into the middle, with Olson at risk of elimination. 

Olson flipped over Q♠J♠ for top pair but Alaniz had him beat with 7♣9♣ for two pair. 

The 8♠ on the turn gave Olson some extra straight-outs, but the river brick with the 3♦ and he was sent to the rail in 5th place.
