Russell Giordano made it 2,500,000 to play from under the gun and action folded around to Michael Wagner in the small blind who three-bet all in and had Giordano covered. The big blind folded and Giordano snap-called for his tournament life.

Michael Wagner: A♥Q♠

No danger for Giordano on the 4♦9♦7♦ flop and the J♣ turn changed nothing. No ace on the K♣ river for Wagner and Giordano was sent the pot for a double up.
