Phachara Wongwichit raised to 110,000 from early position and short stack Ferenc Riech defended his big blind to see the flop {8-Hearts}{J-Spades}{4-Hearts}. The German, who came back from the previous break as chip leader and then lost the majority of his stack with two expensive small pocket pairs, gave it some thought before announcing all in.

Wongwichit snap-called within one second and they turned them over:

Riech: {A-Diamonds}{4-Spades}
Wongwichit: {J-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}

The German was all in and at risk for around 430,000 and needed a four or an ace to stay alive. The {Q-Spades} on the turn barely changed anything before the {6-Spades} on the river sent Riech to the rail in 10th place for a payday of A$18,950.
