George Abi-Zeid raised in the cutoff to 40,000 and got a call from Ray Henson in the big blind.

Henson showed 6♦4♦4♠3♣ for trip sixes, which was enough to take the pot

Players at the final table are joking with chip leader Thai Ha about offering a chop with 11 players left as Ha continues to build his huge stack.
Recently after he limped in the hijack, Danylo Turov raised to 50,000 which Ha called.
On the Q♣9♠6♣ flop, Ha check-called a bet of 40,000 from Turov to see the 10♥ on the turn.
Ha now led for 125,000 and Turov frustratedly folded.
Ha's stack is now well over two million, with only a couple of other players around the one million mark

With a bit under 100,000 in the middle on a flop of J♠7♠3♣, Jason Daly checked his big blind to Kyle Arora who bet 80,000 from the hijack.
Daly responded with a check-pot bet and Arora then moved all in for a bit over 400,000 with Daly slightly covering him.
Kyle Arora: A♠Q♦7♦6♠
Jason Daly: J♣10♥7♣6♣
Daly held top two pair but needed to fade the flush draw of Arora.
The turn J♣ filled up Daly, leaving Arora drawing dead to the 2♣ river and ending his day in 12th place.

There was 238,000 in the middle on a turn board of J♣8♥3♥4♣ when Thai Ha checked his small blind to Steven McKuin in early position.
McKuin bet the pot and was met with a check-raise all in from the chip leader. McKuin called for about 650,000 total and was at risk in the biggest pot of the tournament.
Steven McKuin: A♠Q♠J♠8♣
Thai Ha: 6♣5♠4♠3♣
Ha held bottom two pair plus an open-ended straight draw and a flush draw against McKuin's top two pair.
McKuin was unable to fade the draws however as the K♣ fell on the turn to give Ha the massive pot and score another elimination.
