Action folded around to the blinds where James Dorrance shoved from the small and Wally Maddah called all in for 1,135,000 in the big, putting himself at risk.

Dorrance: KhTs
Maddah: TdTc

The Kd9d8d flop gave Dorrance the lead with a pair of kings, but Maddah picked up a flush draw for his tournament life. Sure enough, the turn was the 5d, filling that flush and locking up the pot one card early. The river was the meaningless 9s, and Maddah doubled up.

Wally Maddah – 2,360,000 (30 bb)
James Dorrance – 1,595,000 (20 bb)
