Players: 7 of 828 players remaining

Jordan Joeckel, who was second to act, raised to 200,000 only to have Aaron Massey three-bet all in for 480,000 from the small blind. Joeckel made the call only to discover he’d been coolered.

Massey: KhKs
Joeckel: QsQc

The kings held after the board ran out Ah3d10c9s3h and Massey shipped the double. Joeckel was left with 485,000 after the hand.

In the very next hand, Joeckel moved all in under the gun and Phillip Hui called from the cutoff.

Joeckel: AdKh
Hui: 9h9c

Joeckel failed to pair either of his hole cards, but thanks to the double-paired JcQh3cJhQd board, his kicker played as Hui got counterfeited.

Phillip Hui – 4.6 million
Aaron Massey – 1.05 million
Jordan Joeckel – 1 million
