Conniff Holds On to Double
Level 31
: Blinds 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante
Asher Conniff moved all in for 3,375,000 on the button and Halil Tasyurek called in the big blind.
Asher Conniff: K♣5♠ 
Halil Tasyurek: A♣7♠
Tasyurek was a favorite to win the pot and secure the bracelet heading to the flop, which came 5♥4♦2♣ to give Conniff the lead with a pair of fives.
Tasyurek had a straight draw to go with his overcards, but he missed the Q♥ turn and 10♠ river as Conniff doubled up.
