Yuji Masaka had only one move upon reaching the final table -- go all in. On the third hand, he did just that behind a limp from David Horvath Horvath made the call with {K-Hearts}

{K-Hearts}

{Q-Hearts}

; he was up against Masaka's {K-Diamonds}

{K-Diamonds}

{K-Spades}

. With the Japanese contingent in the gallery on their feet shouting, "Hold!" (we assume, since we don't speak Japanese), the board ran out {9-Clubs}

{9-Clubs}

{2-Spades}

{9-Hearts}

{8-Clubs}

{J-Diamonds}

. Masaka's kings did indeed hold, allowing him to climb to 34,500 in chips.
