Nitesh Rawtani opened to 80,000 from the hijack and Wing Po Liu called on the button while Denis Strebkov defended his big blind.
Action checked around to Liu on the Q♠9♥8♣ flop who bet 225,000, getting only a call from Strebkov.
On the turn J♣, Strebkov checked over to Liu who bet 700,000 and Strebkov went all in for 1,234,000, sending Liu into the tank. After some more thought he tossed in the chip to call and put Strebkov at risk.
Denis Strebkov: K♥10♣8♠8♥ 
Wing Liu: Q♦10♦10♥9♣
Both players had turned a straight, but it was Strebkov's that was to the king and he held the lead. The river Q♥ changed the lead with Liu filling up and Strebkov slammed the table shaking his head. The WSOP bracelet winner exited the field and Liu took a huge chip lead over the tournament.
