Action folded to Samuel Choae in the small blind, who moved all in for his remaining 3,500,000 stack. Richard Buckingham, in the big blind, called to put Choae at risk.

Samuel Choae: K7 All in
Richard Buckingham: A5

The flop Q42 gave Buckingham a straight draw, but more importantly, kept him ahead.

The turn 6 reduced Choae's outs, as Buckingham had now picked up a flush draw too.

Unfortunately for Choae, the river 6 was no help either, and he vacated his seat to head for the exit.
