Action was picked up with Chris Hunichen all in for 84,000, and Daniel Dvoress putting him at risk.
Chris Hunichen: Q♥J♣
Daniel Dvoress: A♦K♠
It was a fair fight, but Hunichen needed to improve past the ace-high of Dvoress to stay in the tournament. When the board ran out 10♣6♠4♦5♠7♣, the ace-king of Dvoress was still best, knocking out Hunichen.
