The action folded to the small blind where Benjamin Markway shoved all in. He had Jeff Martin, who was in the big blind covered.

Martin had about 230,000 after paying the big blind and called with {q-Spades}{9-Diamonds}. Markway had {a-Diamonds}{6-Spades}.

The board ran out {10-Spades}{7-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{4-Clubs}{j-Hearts} and Markway won the hand and eliminated Martin after he got it in three consecutive hands.
