: 30,000/60,000, 0 ante
Chris Vitch opened the action with a pot-sized raise of 210,000 from the hijack. Joe Hachem was in the big blind and asked Vitch what he was playing and Vitch responded saying he started the hand with 550,000. He eventually made the call and the flop came 
. Hachem checked and Vitch shoved for his remaining 340,000. Hachem called.
Chris Vitch: 
Joe Hachem: 
The turn and river fell 
and the two chopped the pot, Vitch with nines up and Hachem with the nut low.
