Aaron Johnson was under the gun and pumped it up to 45,00. Derek Mcmaster went all in over the top of him in the hijack and Daniel Hendrickson cold four-bet all in over him out of the small blind.
"Just under six, Dan?" asked Johnson. Hendrickson confirmed and Johnson folded.
Derek Mcmaster: 
Daniel Hendrickson: 
Mcmaster was in trouble until the flop came 
, putting him out in front and leaving him needing to fade the case queen to stay alive. The turn

Jeremy Dresch:
