From under the gun, David Chiu raised to 32,000 and the action folded around to Joseph Ressler, who called from the button. Michael McDonald folded his small blind, but Shawn Bennani re-potted it from the big blind, making it 134,000 to go.

Chiu raised, forcing Ressler out of the way and Bennani slapped the rest of his chips into the middle before the cards were tabled:

Chiu: {K-Spades}{K-Hearts}{10-Spades}{9-Clubs}
Bennani: {A-Diamonds}{K-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}

The board was spread {5-Hearts}{2-Spades}{2-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{8-Clubs} and Bennani was sent to the rail in 15th place to collect $23,519, while Chiu was left to stack up his newly-acquired chips. His stack is now worth more than 1,020,000.
