The short-stacked Nick Hicks was all-in for 945,000 and at risk after being called by Kairat Turaliyev.
Nick Hicks: K♦K♥
Kairat Turaliyev: 8♠10♣
Hicks' pair of kings were in great shape and improved to a set on the K♠9♦7♥ flop, although his opponent still had outs with his up and down straight draw.
However any hopes of a turnaround were extinguished by the 7♦ turn, giving Hicks a full house and leaving his opponent drawing dead. The A♥ completed the runout.

The tournament director has just announced six more hands will be played before Day 2 concludes.
Philip Baker opened to 400,000 from late position and Lee Cowmeadow moved all in for 1,460,000, with Baker making the quick call, putting Cowmeadow at risk.
As soon as Baker called, Cowmeadow looked shocked and stated he had thought action had folded round to him.
Lee Cowmeadow: 6♥2♣
Philip Baker: 7♠8♠
Cowmeadow needed some help and the K♣5♦6♣ flop gave him a pair of sixes, however the 9♦ turn gave Baker the straight and left Cowmeadow drawing dead.
The 7♣ river completed the board, with Cowmeadow heading to the exit after an unfortunate lapse in concentration.
