Joseph Walters moved all in from the button for about 600,000, and Nadeem Hirani called from the small blind with 8s8c.

Walters turned over Ah3c, and he needed to improve to stay alive.

The board came Ks5s4s10h3s — Walters paired his three on the river, but the same card gave Hirani a spade flush. Hirani won the pot to eliminate Walters in third place.
