After "surviving for most of the day with less than 20 big blinds," Leo Soma in middle position jammed for 410,000. Russel Banzon in the cutoff three-bet all-in for roughly 700,000 and he made the button and the blinds fold.

Leo Soma: J♥10♥ All in
Russel Banzon: A♠A♥

Soma ran into aces but still flopped a flush draw on the K♥6♥6♠ flop. He failed to improve however on the 2♠ turn and the 8♣ river and was sent to the rail.
