Phil Ivey limped in on the button and Aleksejs Ponakovs came along from the small blind. Ben Heath ripped all in for 3,300,000 in the big blind and Ivey called after getting a count. Ponakovs got out of the way and the two hands were tabled.

Ben Heath: {a-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}
Phil Ivey: {q-Hearts}{j-Hearts}

The dealer fanned the flop of {6-Spades}{5-Spades}{3-Hearts} and Heath's ace-high was still in the lead. However, the {q-Diamonds} rolled off on the turn and Ivey nailed a pair of queens. The {9-Hearts} completed the board and Heath was ousted in third place, leaving Ivey to battle heads-up with Ponakovs.
