Daniel Negreanu raised to 750,000 on the button and Bryce Yockey announced pot to 2,225,000. Negreanu called and they saw the flop come 7♥6♣2♥.
Yockey then potted again, making it 4,750,000. Negreanu moved all in for 5,125,000 and Yockey snap-called.
Daniel Negreanu: 9♦8♦4♣2♣ 
Bryce Yockey: A♠A♥J♠J♦
Yockey was ahead with his aces, while Negreanu had a pair and straight draw. The K♦ turn left Yockey one card away from the title, but Negreanu hit the 2♠ on the river to make trips as he triumphantly raised his arms in the air and let out a fist pump before raking in the double up.
