After sending a huge double up to Gabriel Fuller, Phillip Krnyaich was sitting on about 1,000,000 when it folded to Antuan Bunkley in the big blind. He dropped a pile of chips in the middle and Krnyaich called at risk in the big.

Bunkley:

Krnyaich was ahead for his double up but Bunkley made trip deuces on the flop, full house deuces of kings on the turn, and kings full of deuces on the river for the overkill knockout.

Antuan Bunkley – 4,500,000 (18 bb)
Phillip Krnyaich – Eliminated in 8th Place ($9,440)
