Victor Chong from under the gun and Colin Dentan in hijack had already built a 50,000 pot on a 9♥10♦Q♥ flop.
On the 3♠ turn, Chong checked the action to Dentan, who shoved all-in for 393,000, covering what his opponent had behind.
Chong thought about his options before making the call.
Victor Chong: Q♣2♠
Colin Dentan: A♣8♣
Chong was ahead with top pair but Dentan was hoping to catch either an ace or a straight to take the pot.
The J♣ river completed Dentan's straight, eliminating Chong from the tournament.
