On just the second hand after the break, Alan Keating and Aram Oganyan got all of their chips in the middle preflop. Both players just sat down with a fresh stack of 600,000 chips and instantly had them all at risk.
Alan Keating: 9♠9♣
Aram Oganyan: A♠K♣
The board ran out K♥7♥3♦K♦Q♥ to give Oganyan trip kings and the victory.
"Do I even have one chip left?" Keating asked the dealer to a shake of her head. "Not even a chair," as he stood up and exited the tournament area.

In the 897th episode of the PokerNews Podcast, Chad Holloway and Kyna England are joined by PokerNews Ontario Ambassador Kyle Anderson, who fills in for Mike Holtz. The trio discusses the deadly shooting that took place across the street from the 2025 World Series of Poker (WSOP) in front of the Bellagio Fountains, and then dives into the color-up controversy involving Tyler Brown, who shared his story with PokerNews.
Kyna then sounds off on the cancelled WSOP Online bracelet event, Michael Lavin won a gold bracelet and an extra $1,000,000 thanks to ClubWPT Gold, and Benny Glaser claimed two bracelets early in the summer. Other tournament winners include Josh Reichard, Brad Ruben, Blaz Zerjav, and Nick Guagenti, who denied Chino Rheem his first bracelet.
After recapping Dusti Smith's win in the Wynn Ladies High Roller and a look ahead to some upcoming poker charity events, Chad shares details on his recent Live Reality Game (LRG) adventure in which he left the WSOP for 10 days to compete in a Survivor-based game, Surviving Reelfoot Season 13, in the woods of Tennessee.
Learn about all those stories and more in the latest episode of the PokerNews Podcast!
Blind versus blind, Manuel Fritz was all in, and Seth Davies was the player who had him at risk.
Manuel Fritz: 2♠2♦
Seth Davies: Q♦10♦
The flop brought a bad start for Fritz, coming down 6♣10♣4♥, the turn Q♠ left him with just one chance to find the two-outer. No dice on the J♦ river, and Fritz headed to the exit.

Phil Ivey and Bryn Kenney were a couple of the late entries and both had short stacks in front of them. Both players got all of their chips in the middle with Kenney being at risk for just over 400,000.
Bryn Kenney: Q♦10♦
Phil Ivey: A♠2♣
The flop of 7♥6♦4♠ whiffed both players, leaving Ivey in front with ace-high. The 10♠ on the turn gave Kenney a pair of tens but the A♣ on the river gave Ivey a pair of aces to eliminate Kenney.
