Just as Vinny Pahuja walked away from the tournament podium, the Eugene Zaslavsky would be all-in and at risk on the flop against Craig Bateman (for a 6,500,000 pot):
Flop: 8♣ K♥ 9♣
Zaslavsky: K♦ 10♦
Bateman: Q♣ 10♣
Turn: A♠
River: A♣
Everyone remaining was focused on the felt, waiting for the dealer to put out the turn. The ace of spades was not the card Bateman and his rail were looking for, but when the board paired with the ace of clubs, those remaining would turn into a trio that quick.

Action would fold around to Vinny Pahuja on the button, and he opened the pot to 325,000. Craig Bateman would three-bet to 700,000, and Pahuja would four-bet shove. Without even asking for a count, Bateman made the quick call, and Vinny would be running J♦ J♥ into A♣ A♦:

Level 30 (Blinds 60,000/120,000/15,000)
Players Remaining: 5
Chip Average: 7,400,000
Deding Xu would open the pot to 250,000, and after action folded to Vinny Pahuja in the big blind, he would make the call. The dealer placed out the flop of 10♥ 8♣ 3♥, and Vinny would check call Xu's bet of 325,000. Pahuja would once again check-call Xu's bet after the 5♠ on the turn, this time for 650,000. The dealer placed the 9♦ on the river, and Vinny once again checked to Deding. Xu put together a bet of 1,075,000 on the river, and asking for the exact amount, Pahuja made the call for a third street. "I have three tens," said Deding once Vinny looked his way (10♠ 10♣), and Pahuja turned over 8♠ 9♠ before his cards went into the muck.
