Frank Crivello raised to 400,000 from late position, Benjamin Pollak called on the button, and Florian Lohnert called in the big blind.

The flop came {q-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{6-Hearts}, and Lohnert checked. Crivello quickly bet 1,100,000, and Pollak wasted no time calling. Lohnert folded. The turn was the {2-Clubs}. Crivello instantly moved all in for 3,535,000, and Pollak asked for a count. After about a minute, he called.

"Flush draw?" asked Crivello. He tabled {k-Diamonds}{q-Hearts} for top pair with a king kicker, at risk against Pollak's {9-Clubs}{8-Clubs} for a pair of eights and a flush draw.

The river was the {10-Clubs}, and Pollak made his flush, sending him the pot and Crivello to the rail.

Crivello headed off to the payout desk to collect $176,399 for his 40th-place finish.
