Alejandro Jauregui raises from the cutoff to 225,000, Albert Tapia moves all in from the small blind for 1,300,000, and Philip Shing calls from the big blind.

Jauregui uses one of his Time Chips to tank for about a minute before he folds.

Tapia turns over Spade 10Club 10, but he needs to improve to stay alive against Shing’s Heart ADiamond A.

The board comes Spade QDiamond JHeart 8Spade 4Diamond 9, and Tapia rivers a queen-high straight to win the pot and double up in chips.

Albert Tapia  –  2,925,000  (29 bb)
Philip Shing  –  675,000  (7 bb)
