Andres Korn opened from under the gun and Bryce Yockey fired back with a pot-sized raise from middle position. Korn shoved for just under 2,200,000 and Yockey called with a covering stack to put him at risk.

Bryce Yockey: A♠A♥J♣7♦
The board ran out J♠4♦3♠5♠7♣. Korn had made a wheel to crack Yockey's aces and secure a massive double up.
Donny Rubinstein, limped under the gun, calling the 80,000 big blind. Calvin Anderson limped as well from the button.
Christopher Vitch was having none of that. He raised 400,000 from the small blind, which put Rubinstein all in once he made the call.
Donny Rubinstein: A♣8♠5♠5♦
Christopher Vitch: A♠Q♣6♦3♠

In the first rotation at the final table, very few hands reached the turn, let alone the river. The raise-raise-fold dance is in full effect. And the first to fire after the flop takes down the pot.
