Pot-Limit 2-7 Triple Draw
The first hand of the unofficial final table saw Dario Alioto open to 50,000 in middle position and Ryan Hoenig call in the cutoff. Philip Sternheimer came along in the big blind and announced he was checking dark while drawing two.
Alioto also took two, while Hoenig drew one. Alioto checked to Hoenig, who slid out a bet of 80,000. Sternheimer didn't take long to fold, with Alioto also sliding his cards to the dealer as Hoenig raked in the first pot.
