Benny Glaser was the final player to leave before the tournament converged into one last table. It all happened when small blind Declan Rice raised from the small blind to 700,00 into Glaser's big blind. Glaser then moved in for all of his 5,075,000 chips.

After getting an exact count, Rice reflected upon the situation for a good while before ultimately putting in the call. Glaser was at risk to become the final table bubble but turned out to be a big favorite to double up.

Benny Glaser: AK
Declan Rice: AJ

The players traded outs as the dealer spelled out 10Q8 in front of the cameras, but Rice was the only one who was also drawing to the bottom end of the straight.

The turn 2 was a big blank, but disaster struck Glaser on the river as it fell 9, giving Rice a straight to the queen. Glaser's ace-high was no good, and he walked to the payout area as the other nine players are taking a small break while the televised final table is being prepared.

Rice will start said final table as the chip leader, with Glaser's stack added to his.
