Dan Sepiol was all in for over 1,000,000 against Nicholas Seward across the table.
Dan Sepiol: A♦K♥ 
Nicholas Seward: A♥10♣
Sepiol had the better kicker but couldn't fade a runout of 10♥A♣Q♥4♥5♦ to send him out ahead of the final table in what Drake Kemper described as "WPT on WPT violence."
"Hard to stop Seward right now," said Jesse Lonis.
