Heather Alcorn had just got through a jam in the small blind with K♣J♥. It wasn't long before Alcorn found herself all in again against Shiina Okamoto.
The final hand of the day saw Okamoto limp from the small blind with 9♣9♠ and Heather Alcorn swiftly moved her remaining 2,350,000 with A♦2♠. Okamoto snap called and the players went to the runout.
Heather Alcorn: A♦2♠
Shiina Okamoto: 9♠9♣
The 3♥10♠K♣ flop brought nothing in for Alcorn.
