After Shiva Dudani limped his small blind and Michael Duek checked his big blind, the flop came , and Dudani checked.

Duek bet 750,000 from his dwindling stack and Dudani came back with a pot-sized check-raise. Duek quickly moved the rest of his chips in and put himself at risk.

Michael Duek:
Shiva Dudani:

Dudani held top two pair while Duek held an overpair of nines, a flush draw, and a gutshot straight draw.

Despite his many outs, Duek couldn't connect with the turn or the river to end his day in third place and send the tournament to heads-up play between Dudani and Sean Troha.
