Charles ‘ilosestackz’ Phillips’ run in this event came to an end when he shoved J8 from the small blind and received a call from the A10 of James ‘paymycollege’ Pace.

In another battle of the blinds, Alec ‘Tango_Bravo’ Parslow raised from the small blind with AK and then called a shove from Dunst in the big blind.

The 3 on the turn completed both players’ draws. Dunst checked and Pace bet 425,000. Dunst check-raised to 1.6 million and Pace called with his straight and a queen-high flush draw going into the river. The Q on the end prompted Dunst to bet 3.2 million.
