From late position, Luke Varrasso shoved all in for around 1,500,000. Kotaro Arakawa was in the big blind and had about 1,200,000 total, or a little over seven big blinds in the new level.
Arakawa ultimately decided to go for it with a raggedy holding.
Kotaro Arakawa: Q♦5♠
Luke Varrasso: A♥J♠
The Q♣4♦3♦ flop brought the queen Arakawa needed, and the 7♦ turn was safe as well, slashing one of Varrasso's three remaining outs.
Unfortunately for Arakawa, the A♠ on the river was one of the other outs remaining to send the Japanese packing in 33rd.

Martin Ward moved all in for 1,240,000 and was called by Diogo Cardoso.
Martin Ward: 6♥6♣
Diogo Cardoso: J♦J♠
"Sometimes you've got to hit your six," said Ward as the cards were turned over.
"I see it," said someone at the table as the dealer dealt the Q♦6♠4♠ flop. The turn 4♣ and river 8♠ bricked and Ward doubled up.
"That's the first time I've hit a set this entire tournament," he said.
