They both needed to make a move and both caught what they needed. Thong Ho open-shoved for 2,750,000 and Harrison Gimbel moved in over the top to isolate.

Gimbel: AcJh
Ho: As3h

Ho needed help. He didn’t find it on the Qs9h5c flop but the 3d was what he was looking to catch. He faded the 9c river to double.

Thon Ho: 7,500,000
Harrison Gimbel: 7,400,000

Next up it was Watson moving all-in for 2,200,000 and it was Salomon Ponte calling this time for a chance at the KO.

Ponte: 8c8d
Watson: Th8h

Watson needed an interesting flop and found it a double belly buster draw when it came 7c6d4h. He missed the Ac turn but popped the 9c river for his double.

Ponte: 6,500,000
Watson: 5,300,000
