Raminder Singh opened to 470,000 from middle position and picked up calls from Daniel Perez and Evgeniy Catane. David Shaw moved all-in for 1,850,000 from the big blind to get a tank fold from Singh, a quick fold from Perez, before Catane called with 8c8s.

Shaw needed to catch with AsQs and did exactly that on the Ac5h2h flop. He made Aces Up on the Qd turn and dodged Catane’s two outs on the 3h river to double up.

Shaw: 4,890,000
Catane: 4,700,000
