Jerry Wong raised to 120,000 from under the gun plus one. Dimitar Danchev flatted out of the small blind and Andrey Shatilov called from the big as well.
The trio saw a monotone flop of 
and there were two checks to Wong. He continued for 175,000 only to have Danchev come over the top for 430,000. Shatilov got out of the way and Wong announced that he was all in. Danchev snapped him off and the hands were tabled.
Danchev: 
Wong: 
Danchev had flopped the nuts and was a huge favorite to double up. Wong would need a miracle turn and the 
that fell was not it. Danchev was now guaranteed a double as the meaningless 
dropped down on the river. With this win Wong has fallen out of the chip lead and Danchev doubled to about 4.14 million.

Welcome back to PokerNews' coverage of the 2013 PokerStars Caribbean Adventure from the Atlantis Resort on Paradise Island.
The Main Event began almost one week ago and after six days of poker, a field of 987 is left with just eight players looking to capture the $1,859,000 first-place prize and a place in the PCA record books. Leading the way with 7.4 million is Jerry Wong.
Yesterday's action saw the chip lead change multiple times throughout the late stages of the night as Wong, Joel Micka (6.475 million), and Ryan Fair each took turns atop the leader board. However, both Wong and Micka were the key figures in taking Fair's chips before his exit in ninth place.
Supernova Elite Andrey Shatilov (3.22 million), accomplished pro Owen Crowe (2.9 million), and $10 satelite winner Joao Nogueira (2.89 million) complete the top five chip counts. Online star Yann "yadio" Dion (2.535 million), 2011 EPT San Remo runner-up Dimitar Danchev (1.995 million), and recent WPT Montreal champion Jonathan Roy (1.525 million) round out the final table.
Who will join the elite list of PCA Main Event Champions?

| 2004 | Gus Hansen | $455,780 |
| 2005 | John Gale | $890,600 |
| 2006 | Steve Paul-Ambrose | $1,388,600 |
| 2007 | Ryan Daut | $1,535,255 |

The final table has already started, but our coverage will begin at about 2:10pm with the live TV stream.
Yann Dion is 29 years old and hails from Québec. With more than $300,000 in live tournament winnings, Dion is no stranger to the live scene. His largest live cash came at the 2012 Aussie Millions Main Event when he finished in seventh place for A$170,000.
It's on the virtual felt, though, where "yadio" has made his mark with more than $2,000,000 in winnings. Aside from wins in the Bigger $109 and the Sunday $109 Rebuy in 2012, Dion closed out the year by winning the FTOPS Main Event for $453,229 and final tabling the Sunday Million the following week, finishing sixth for $46,308.
