While the other tables were racking up the chips for the redraw, table seven was still playing. Vlad Darie raised from early position and Paul Berger defended his big blind. Berger bet the {8-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{3-Spades} flop and then called all in for approximately 1,600,000 after Darie had pushed all in.

Paul Berger: {Q-Hearts}{9-Hearts}
Vlad Darie: {8-Spades}{4-Hearts}

The {8-Diamonds} turn gave Darie trips eights and Berger's flush draw never got there with the {9-Diamonds} appearing on the river. Berger was eliminated in 16th place for $32,665 and Darie further built his lead for the last two tables.
