At the other table, with the board showing KsKhJh6h on the turn, Edgar Varas checks the hijack, Kevin Butler bets 600,000, and Varas check-raises to 2,250,000. Butler moves all in for about 5.75 million, and Varas calls with [AhQh] for an ace-high flush (with Royal Flush draw). Butler turns over KcQc for trip kings, and he needs to fill up to stay alive.

The river card is — the 10h.

Varas makes an unnecessary Royal Flush to win the pot, eliminating Butler in 11th place on the final table bubble.
