Wai Kiat Lee shoved from the cutoff for 3,200,000 and Elton Tsang deliberated before calling for his last 665,000 on the button.

Elton Tsang: {9-Clubs}{9-Spades}
Wai Kiat Lee: {a-Diamonds}{j-Spades}

The flop {10-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{8-Hearts} favored Tsang, and although the {j-Diamonds} turn gave Lee a pair there were still outs that Tsang could hit to stay alive.

However, the {a-Hearts} wasn't one of them and Tsang was eliminated.
