In the last hand before the break, Taylor Black raised from the hijack, and Elio Fox called from the big blind.

The flop came 5h4s2h, Fox checked, Black bet, and Fox called. The turn card was the Kc, Fox checked, Black bet, and Fox called.

The river card paired the board with the 2s, Fox checked, and Black moved all in for about 90,000.

Fox called with Ad2c for trip deuces, and Black turned over AhJh for an ace-high bluff (missed his flush and straight draws). Black is eliminated in eighth place as Fox catapults to a huge chip lead, with more than twice as many chips as anyone else.

Elio Fox  –  890,000  (111 bb)
