In a battle between the blinds, Carlo van Ravenswoud led out for 55,000 on a flop of 9♠K♥5♦ and Kristopher Tong called.
Van Ravenswoud checked the 9♦ turn, and Tong bet 120,000. Van Ravenswoud called to see the 5♠ river, where Tong slid forward 600,000.
Van Ravenswoud tanked for several minutes before he called for his last 500,000. Tong turned over 10♥9♥ for trips, and Van Ravenswoud tossed A♠A♦ into the muck as he made his way to the rail.
"All the games I never play. Hold'em. No-Limit deuce. I won a big Hold'em hand on Day 1, played it like shit," Tong said.
Bryn Kenney was eliminated at the same time on another table.
