Per Hildebrand: 8♥6♥ / 9♠7♦9♦J♥ / J♣ All in
Mori Eskandani: 5♦5♠ / 2♥5♥J♦3♥ / 6♦
Dan Heimiller: Q♥Q♦ / 4♦Q♠A♠6♣ / 10♠

Per Hildebrand completed before Dan Heimiller raised. Mori Eskandani, the bring-in, called and so did Hildebrand.

Fourth street checked through. On fifth street, Hildebrand put in his last 4,000. Heimiller called and then Eskandani raised. Heimiller called.

On sixth street, Heimiller checked. Eskandani bet and then Heimiller raised. Eskandani three-bet and Heimiller just called. Heimiller then check-called on seventh street.

The at-risk Hildebrand had jacks and nines but saw both of his opponents have better holdings. Eskandani thought he'd won with trip fives but Heimiller had three queens to become the first player to hit 1,000,000 chips.

A big pot had brewed between George Alexander and Qiang Xu. The latter put in his last bet on seventh street, even before seeing his final downcard. Alexander also called without looking at what his last card was.

Qiang Xu: 3♦3♣ / K♣J♣3♠3♥ / A♦All in
George Alexander: A♣2x / 4♦A♠2♠A♥ / Q♦

Both players had monsters by sixth street, with Xu making quad threes while Alexander had aces full. Xu's last card was an ace meaning he'd locked up the hand as it blocked Alexander from making his four of a kind.

Brian Yoon: 8♥8♠/ 8♦3♠Q♥5♣ / 9♣
Per Hildebrand: K♥K♣ / 6♦7♠8♣A♦ / 5♠

Brian Yoon began the post-dinner session as one of the short stacks, but found the perfect start when play resumed.

With play on the stone bubble, Yoon completed and chip leader Per Hildebrand was the only caller.

Yoon bet on fourth street and was called. Yoon fired another bet on fifth street before Hildebrand raised. Yoon was undeterred and called. Yoon then called bets on sixth and seventh street.

Hildebrand had kings in the hole but it was no match for Yoon's rolled up eights, which was good for trips and the pot.
