Arriving on a turn on 8♥A♦6♥K♦, Alex Keating shoved in his stack of 350,000 from the hijack, in a pot that had already grown to a massive size of 125,000.

Dorian Melchers was his opponent and sat in the cutoff. Melchers played around 300,000 himself and was deep in the tank regarding this decision. Eventually, he pushed in all of his chips, and the two hands were revealed.

Dorian Melchers: A♥5♥
Alex Keating: 8♦8♣

Keating's set was up against the flush draw of Melchers. The river was red, but the 7♦ was not the suit Melchers was looking for. He was eliminated from the Main Event in an enormous clash that saw Keating chip up to three times the average stack.
