With the board showing Kh8h6hAs on the turn and about 2.8 million already in the pot, Hector Pacheco moved all in from the small blind for about 10.8 million.

Abraham Ramos tanked for a very long time before he called all in for 4,925,000 with Qh8c for a pair of eights with a queen-high flush draw.

Pacheco turned over 10d9c for a gutshot straight draw, and Ramos needed to avoid a non-heart seven on the river to stay alive.

The river card was the Js, and Ramos won the pot with his pair of eights to double up in chips.

Abraham Ramos  –  12,600,000  (50 bb)
Hector Pacheco  –  5,800,000  (23 bb)

With 12 players remaining from a field of 4,017, the average chip stack is around 8,375,000 (34 big blinds). The remaining players are guaranteed at least $21,200 each.
