With the board showing 10s7s6sQd and about 1,900,000 already in the pot, Bryce McVay got it all in from the button for 1,190,000 against Glenn Becker.

Becker showed 7c6d for two pair, sevens and sixes, but McVay turned over AsKs for an ace-high flush. McVay needed to avoid a seven or six on the river to stay alive.

The river card was the 3d, and McVay won the pot with his spade flush to double up in chips.

Bryce McVay  –  4,275,000  (43 bb)
