Petar Kalev raised to 60,000 from under the gun before Andrew Hulme raised to 150,000 from the button. Tibor Benko committed his last 160,000 from the big blind and Kalev got out of the way before Hulme tossed in 10,000 more. Action was heads up and Benko was at risk.
Tibor Benko: 
Andrew Hulme: 
The board ran out 
and Hulme held on with his ace to eliminate Benko and move near the 1,000,000 mark.
