Matt Matros: A♥K♦
Stephen Ma: A♣Q♦
Matros had Ma dominated, and the 6♦10♦7♠2♣3♣ board kept him in the lead with his king-kicker to earn a double up.

At the same time at another table, Frank Brannan had bet 275,000 from the button on a board of K♥9♥2♣A♥ and Jason Blodgett raised to 1,600,000 in the big blind. Brannan then moved all in for 2,000,000, and Blodgett snap-called.
Blodgett turned over A♦2♦ for two pair, and Brannan flung K♣4♣ across the table as he was already preparing to make his exit. The A♣ river improved Blodgett to a full house, and Brannan headed off to the payout desk.
Matt Matros raised to 300,000 in the cutoff and Chan Woo Kim three-bet to 1,000,000 in the small blind. Mukul Pahuja then moved all in from the big blind and Matros quickly folded, while Kim, with around 6,000,000 behind, took a few minutes before also sending his cards into the muck.

Lucas Vergara: A♥3♥
Vishal Barmadat: 5♣5♥
