Diogo Veiga raised under the gun to 2,200,000 and Antoine Goutard shoved on the button for 3,600,000. The action folded back around to Veiga and he instantly called.

Antoine Goutard: {10-Hearts}{10-Spades}
Diogo Veiga: {q-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}

The flop came {a-Hearts}{k-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}, now giving both players a gutshot straight draw with the opponent's card. The {3-Hearts} on the turn and the {5-Diamonds} on the river changed nothing though, sending Goutard home in fifth place for $52,943.

Level 38 : 500,000/1,000,000, 100,000 ante
SheLok Wong
SheLok Wong

Shelok Wong went all-in for his remaining stack of 2.5 million in chips and was called by Diogo Veiga. Julian Velasquez in the big blind also made the call.

The flop came {5-Diamonds}{j-Spades}{8-Diamonds} and both players checked to the turn {k-Diamonds}. Veiga checked and Velasquez bet 4 million but Veiga quickly folded. It went to a showdown for the rest of the board and Wong was still at risk.

Shelok Wong: {a-Hearts}{7-Hearts}
Julian Velasquez: {k-Clubs}{4-Hearts}

The river was {9-Spades} which would be no help to Wong and he would be our 6th place finisher.

The action folded around to Antoine Goutard in the small blind and he jammed all-in. Jason Wheeler went into the tank for quite awhile before saying, "Can't play scared." And slammed his 9,200,000 into the center.

Jason Wheeler: {k-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}
Antoine Goutard: {k-Spades}{5-Clubs}

It was a battle of the king-highs and the board ran out {j-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{3-Hearts} for Wheeler's seven-kicker to play.

Queen on the River Saves Gates

Level 37 : 400,000/800,000, 800,000 ante
Garry Gates
Garry Gates

Garry Gates shoved for 5,600,000 in the hijack and Julian Velasquez called on the button.

Garry Gates: {a-Clubs}{k-Spades}
Julian Velasquez: {9-Spades}{9-Diamonds}

The dealer fanned a flop of {j-Spades}{10-Clubs}{9-Spades}, giving Velasquez a set and only a gutshot straight draw for the Gates. The {5-Clubs} on the turn was a brick but the {q-Diamonds} on the river meant Gates could stay in his seat with a Broadway straight.
