Efthymia Litsou raised it up to 175,000 and Michael Rocco then three-bet to 725,000 with one single T-5,000 chip behind, which Litsou called. The flop came {a-Hearts}{k-Hearts}{6-Clubs} and Litsou check-called the all-in but was well behind in the following showdown.

Michael Rocco: {a-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}
Efthymia Litsou: {j-Diamonds}{9-Spades}

The {7-Hearts} turn confirmed the double of Rocco and the {2-Hearts} river further improved his hand to the nut flush.

"Welcome back," Dan Smith in the one seat said.

It was then Smith who doubled his short stack with {8-Hearts}{7-Hearts} against the {10-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} of Kenneth Baime when he got there on the {q-Hearts}{4-Spades}{2-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds} board. However, the potential comeback of Smith was then cut short when he ran with ace-queen into the ace-king of Rocco to become the next early casualty on Day 6.
