Evan Sandberg raised from middle position and Pete Fox defended the big blind.

Fox: 10♥6♥
Sandberg: A♣10♦
The 3♦ turn and 9♠ river completed the board and Fox was eliminated in ninth place for $10,643.

With roughly 2,000,000 in the middle on the river of a A♠5♦A♣Q♥6♠ board, Dan Heimiller bet 1,800,000 from the small blind, and Gilles Frere jammed for 3,150,000 in the cutoff.
Heimiller briefly deliberated and called.
Heimiller showed 5♥5♣ for a flopped boat, but Frere tabled A♥6♥ to take the massive pot with a rivered superior boat. Heimiller was left with only 150,000 and was eliminated shortly after in fifth place for $5,000.
Gilles Frere – 8,325,000
Dan Heimiller – 0
