In a single-raised pot in a battle of the blinds to the 9♠8♥5♥ flop, the raising war got the chips into the middle between Ruben Padilla and Joe Hachem with the latter at risk for 1,340,000.

Joe Hachem: 5♣5♠ All in
Ruben Padilla: J♥J♠

The 9♥ turn gave Padilla some more outs but the K♦ river was not among them, vaulting Hachem to a big stack close to the final three tables.
