Four players went to a flop of J♦8♣6♦ when a player under the gun bet 75,000. Jason Simone then raised to 175,000 in middle position. Willard Hunt folded in the small blind, while Piyush Mittal then moved all in for 310,000 in the big blind.

The under-the-gun player tanked for several minutes before folding. "What a disaster I put myself in," Simone said as he also took a minute, but he eventually called to put Mittal at risk.

Piyush Mittal: K♦10♦ All in
Jason Simone: A♥J♥

Simone was ahead with top pair against Mittal's flush draw, and the J♠ turn and J♣ river improved him to quads for the knockout.

"Two hands in, he was down to 2,000 chips," another tablemate said as Simone moved up to around 1,000,000.

Piyush Mittal raised to 40,000 in the hijack before Jason Simone moved all in for 150,000 in the big blind. "Chump change. Not even worth your time," Simone told Mittal before he called.

Jason Simone: A♠10♣ All in
Piyush Mittal: Q♠J♠

"It was nice playing with all of you," Simone said as he got up from his seat and began putting on his backpack as the flop came 6♠K♥3♠, giving Mittal a flush draw. The 6♣ turn was safe for Simone, while the K♣ fell on the river to earn him a double up.

"I surrendered to defeat," Simone added as he retook his seat.
