It was folded around to Francisco Azares in the small blind, who announced he was all in for his last 300,000. Rocco Palumbo asked for a count from the big blind and made the call to put Palumbo at risk.

Azares: {A-Hearts}{J-Spades}
Palumbo: {J-Diamonds}{K-Hearts}

Azares was in good shape to double up, however the board ran out {2-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{5-Diamonds}.....{K-Clubs}, giving Palumbo a winning king on the river for the knockout blow.

Azares will take home $26,727 for his efforts today.
