In takes only two hands to get an all-in confrontation from our final ten. Jesper Hougaard raises to 26,000 before Neil Channing moves all in for 95,000 total. Hougaard dwells, moves his jaw from side to side, and makes the call with {8-Clubs}

{8-Clubs}

{8-Spades}

. He's up against Channing's {A-Clubs}

{A-Clubs}

{Q-Hearts}

.

All the way to the river we go {A-Spades}

{A-Spades}

{4-Hearts}

{4-Diamonds}

{3-Diamonds}

{2-Spades}

.

The first card out sees an ace drop, which is good enough to seal a double-up for the Brit, putting him up to 215,000. Hougaard is down to 85,000.
