Mikhail Zavoloka raised to 50,000 from middle position.

Ching Da Wu, who won this event two years ago, three-bet all in for 350,000 chips. Zavoloka thought about it for a bit before making the call.

Ching Da Wu: Q♦Q♥All in
Mikhail Zavoloka: A♠J♦

When the flop hit A♦7♠4♣, Wu was in trouble, as Zavoloka paired his ace. The turn brought the 7♦, and Wu stood up to leave.

But the Q♠ landed on the river, bringing a yelp of excitement from giving Wu, as the two-outer delivered a win and more tournament life.

What little hope Buchman had was dashed quickly as the door card gave Stout a set and his sevens took the hand on a full board of 2♣5♥7♠K♠3♥.
