Joseph Chaplin made it 200,000 to play from the button and both Tony Veckey and Jason Wheeler called from the blinds.

Veckey led for 450,000 on a flop of {8-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{6-Hearts} and Wheeler flatted before Chaplin moved all in for 1.6 million. Veckey folded and Wheeler called.

Wheeler: {Q-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}
Chaplin: {7-Hearts}{8-Clubs}

The {Q-Clubs} on the turn paired Wheeler and Chaplin missed his straight draw with the {K-Spades} on the river. He left in third place with $276,029.
