After a preflop betting war, Dakotah O'Dell and chip leader Saied Moradi got it all in the middle, with O'Dell at risk.

Dakotah O'Dell: K♣K♦
Saied Moradi: A♥A♦

The table let out a collective groan as the classic cooler was revealed, with O'Dell on the short-end of the stick.

The board ran out 10♣3♠9♠A♣9♠ leaving O'Dell dead on the turn and the river was just overkill as it gave Moradi the top full house to eliminate O'Dell in 15th place.

Moradi is now the mega chip leader with around 3,775,000.
