Jesse Vilchez raised to 90,000 on the button and Jordan Polk flatted in the small blind. The flop came down {9-Spades}{2-Spades}{3-Diamonds} and the players stuffed their chips in as Vilchez continued for 105,000. Polk potted and called for 1,695,000 million when Vilchez shoved.

Vilchez: {A-Hearts}{A-Spades}{Q-Spades}{J-Hearts}
Polk: {J-Diamonds}{J-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{3-Spades}

Polk flopped a set while Vilchez had the nut-flush draw and aces. The {2-Hearts} turn gave Polk a full house and Vilchez could only win with an ace on the river. He didn't get one as the {10-Hearts} catapulted Polk to a gigantic chip lead.
