John Henry Gordon opened to 600,000 with Q♠Q♥ and Simeon Spasov called with K♣8♣.

Gordon was still in the lead on the flop of J♣2♥9♣ and continued for 800,000, which Spasov called with his flush draw.

Spasov further improved to a straight draw on the 10♥ turn but was faced with a bet of 2,000,000 from Gordon.

Spasov again made the call and the two players saw the river bring in the brick 10♠. Spasov checked and Gordon decided to check back, showing the two queens to take down the pot.

Simeon Spasov opened to 600,000 with A♦8♣ and John Henry Gordon came along with K♠9♥.

Crazily enough, the flop came out K♣9♦9♣ to give Gordon a full house, but Spasov is the one who bet 500,000 and Gordon just called.

The action went check-check on the 10♥ turn and they went straight to the 2♣ river. Gordon checked once more but his trap failed as Spasov quickly checked back. Gordon's holding got a big reaction from the table as he showed the huge hand and raked in the pot.

Scott Seiver won his fifth World Series of Poker (WSOP) bracelet and in doing so may have secured his place in the Poker Hall of Fame when he becomes eligible next year.

Seiver, a longtime pro from New York who poker fans may remember from his appearance on the Big Game in the early 2010s, took down Event #10: $10,000 Omaha Hi-Lo 8 or Better Championship (8-Handed) for $426,744 after an intense and grueling final table battle that eventually saw him denying Jonathan Cohen a second bracelet.

Seiver turns 40 next April and thus will be eligible for the Poker Hall of Fame, a club home to other five-plus bracelet winners like Phil Hellmuth, Doyle Brunson, Johnny Chan, Erik Seidel and Phil Hellmuth.

Not only is the Hall of Fame already on Seiver's mind, it's the 39-year-old's primary motivator.

The flop of K♣7♣6♣ gives Fan the lead with two pair but Dube continued for 500,000 with his big pair and queen-high flush draw.

Fan quickly called and the two went to the turn 10♠, which saw a jam from Dube for 2,400,000 and a call from Fan to put him at risk.
