Talal Shakerchi limped in with the A♥8♥8♦3♣ from under the gun and Dennis Weiss in the big blind checked the 10♦10♣5♣2♣ to see the monotone A♠9♠5♠ flop, which both players checked. On the 2♦ turn, they both checked again and saw the Q♣ river for free. No more betting took place and Weiss won the pot with two pair, fives and deuces.
Weiss then potted with the A♠A♣8♦5♥ and claimed the big blind and ante of Shakerchi.
The next pot-sized raise by the German came on the button with A♣K♥3♣2♣ and he got through with it again.
Weiss then potted the 10♥10♠6♦4♠ and Michael Duek defended the big blind holding K♠K♥Q♦7♠. On the A♠K♣J♣ flop, Duek hit middle set and check-called a bet of 1,150,000 by Weiss to then boat up on the A♣ turn. He checked and Weiss checked behind, and did so again on the 3♣ river to concede all of his previous winnings.
Dennis Weiss opened to 1,050,000 from the cutoff with K♣J♥6♣2♦ and Michael Duek defended from the big blind with A♠K♠J♠7♦. The flop came A♣10♣2♥ and Duek check-called a bet of 1,150,000 from Weiss.
The 10♠ paired the board on the turn and Duek checked again. Weiss put together another bet of 2,050,000 with his combo draw but Duek still called. The 3♠ completed the board and Duek checked for the third time. Weiss checked it back after bricking out and Duek closed the gap between himself and the chip leader.
Michael Duek limped in from the cutoff with A♦J♣8♦7♠ which allowed Dennis Weiss with K♠Q♠6♠2♠ and Talal Shakerchi with A♠K♣10♥4♥ to come along from the blinds.
The flop fell J♠5♥2♣ and Weiss led out with a bet of 650,000, holding just a pair deuces. Shakerchi got out of the way but Duek came along with his pair of jacks, the better of the two holdings.
The turn brought the 9♣ and Weiss checked this time. Duek threw in a bet of 2,000,000 and that was enough to force Weiss out of the pot.
Dennis Weiss raised to 1,050,000 from under the gun with A♥Q♥7♥6♣ and Talal Shakerchi flat-called on his left with 10♣9♣8♠8♦.
They went heads-up to a flop of A♣J♥J♣ and Weiss continued with a bet of 950,000. Shakerchi decided to raise to 2,450,000 with just a flush draw. Weiss used one of his time banks and then called.
The turn was the 5♠ and both players checked to the 3♥ on the river. Weiss checked again and Shakerchi gave up the charade by checking it back, sending the pot to Weiss with aces-up.
Jeffrey Hakim raised the pot to 1,050,000 on the button with the K♠K♣10♥6♠ and Talal Shakerchi asked him for the stack size before calling in the big blind holding the K♥Q♣J♠9♦.
The 9♠8♣6♣ flop saw Shakerchi bet the pot to send his opponent deep into the tank. Eventually, Hakim moved all in for 4,000,000 and Shakerchi called.
The 5♦ turn and K♦ river changed nothing except for improving Hakim to a set of kings for the double-up.
Evan Krentzman limped in from the small blind with A♣J♣5♦2♦ and Michael Duek raised the pot to 900,000 from the big blind. Krentzman called and the flop of 10♣7♣4♠ hit the felt.
Both players checked and the A♠ rolled off on the turn. Krentzman checked again and Duek slid out a pot-sized bet of 2,100,000. Krentzman called with top pair and the nut flush draw as the 8♦ landed on the river.
Both players instantly checked the river and Duek flipped over A♥8♥5♠3♠ for two pair to claim the pot.
Dennis Weiss potted to 900,000 with the A♦3♠2♠2♣ and Talal Shakerchi in the big blind defended the K♦7♣5♦3♦ as they headed to the A♥6♦4♣ flop. Weiss bet 1,050,000 with his top pair and gutshot, instantly facing a raise to 2,850,000 by Shakerchi with his rundown.
After some consideration, Weiss came along to the 7♠ turn and checked. Shakerchi had improved to the second nuts and checked it back to the 10♦ on the river. Weiss checked again and then glanced right at his table neighbor, who made it 4,275,000 to go into a pot of 6,800,000.
After some consideration, Weiss tossed his cards into the muck and said, "Nice hand," to Shakerchi.
Chip leader Dennis Weiss started the final day with the A♠K♦10♠3♦ and potted preflop to force folds all around.
Jeffrey Hakim then limped the Q♠10♣6♥5♠ and folded when Weiss raised the Q♥10♦7♥6♦ in the big blind.
