Thomas Boivin: 8♦8♣
Duco ten Haven: 9♠9♣
Boivin found himself crushed by ten Haven's bigger pocket pair as the K♥9♦2♦ flop left him further behind to ten Haven's set. The 9♥ turn sealed his elimination as ten Haven made quads, making the 5♣ river a mere formality.
"Chop chop," Quan Zhou joked with ten Haven, who will take a massive chip lead into heads-up play.
