Rachid Ben Cherif opened to 40,000 from under the gun and both Cheng Liu and Josh Prager called from the hi-jack and small blind respectively.

Ben Cherif continued for 78,000 on the {K-Spades}{7-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds} flop before Liu announced he was all in as Prager quickly mucked. Ben Cherif asked for a count, and when it was revealed to be 626,000, he went into the tank for close to two minutes before making the call.

Ben Cherif: {A-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}
Liu: {9-Clubs}{5-Clubs}

The dealer delivered the {5-Diamonds} on the turn and immediately Liu stood up, clapped his hand and cheered before realizing that his pair on the turn actually gave Ben Cherif the nut flush. The river landed the {10-Hearts} and Liu was headed out the door as Ben Cherif stacked his chips to roughly 2,750,000 in chips.
