Tyler Norris moved all in from the button for 685,000. Laurent Ferrucci went into the tank before making the call for 610,000 from the big blind.

It was a fair coin toss which was won by Norris as by the river they made a better two pair on the board of A♦10♣5♠10♦K♠ to make top two, while Ferrucci headed to the exit.
