Joe Bishop opened for a raise to 225,000 from middle position. Action folded to Kido Pham in the small blind and he moved all in for 1,130,000. Bishop took about two minutes before finally calling and the players showed:

Pham: {A-Hearts} {K-Spades}
Bishop: {J-Diamonds} {J-Clubs}

The flop came {J-Spades} {10-Diamonds} {9-Hearts} and the crowd gasped. Bishop flopped top set but left Pham with an inside straight draw.

The turn fell the {9-Clubs}, which sealed the deal. Bishop's full house was unbeatable and the {3-Spades} on the river was a mere formality.

Pham pushed his remaining chips over to Bishop and gracefully made his way towards the exit amidst a round of applause from the gallery. He was eliminated in 41st place and leaves with $154,400 to show for it.
