Chris Staats opened to 350,000 with A♥A♣ and then Spencer Champlin three-bet to 850,000 with A♠Q♥.
Then Cedrric Trevino woke up with A♦K♦ and moved all in behind for 4,390,000. Staats then took his time before he moved in for less, trying to get a call from Champlin, who sniffed it out and quickly got out of the way.
Unfortunately for Staats, the runout of 6♠K♥7♠K♣J♦ gave Trevino trip kings to crack his aces and he is sent out in eighth place.
