Alex Ziskin raised from the hijack to 500,000, Daniel Garcia moved all in from the button for 1,675,000, and Ziskin called with AsQs.

Garcia turned over AhJd, and needed to improve to stay alive.

The board came Jc9s8c2cJh, and Garcia paired his jack on the flop and rivered trips to win the pot and double up in chips.

Daniel Garcia  –  3,975,000  (16 bb)
