The hand after Tsugunari Toma's double-up, Biao Ding moved all in for 475,000 on the button and Toma called in the small blind.

Tsugunari Toma: A?A?
Toma had woken up with another monster hand as Ding was already drawing dead by the turn on a 6?8?2?6?4? board. He was eliminated in third place as Toma asked to take a picture with Orpaz before the start of heads-up play.

Tom Orpaz raised to 125,000 on the button before Tsugunari Toma moved all in for 1,290,000 in the big blind. Orpaz quickly called.
Tsugunari Toma: A?K?
Tom Orpaz: K?Q?
Toma stood up from his seat to await the 2?6?9? flop as Orpaz began chanting for a queen. The 7? turn was no help for Orpaz, while Toma secured the double up on the 7? river as he clapped his hands and ran away from the table to celebrate.
"Boy who cried wolf. He goes all in every hand," Orpaz said.

Action folded to Tom Orpaz in the small blind who asked who much Erik Seidel had in his stack before shoving all in. Seidel quickly called for his last 370,000.
Tom Orpaz: J?2?
Erik Seidel: K?6?
The 2?2?Q? flop was a disaster for Seidel as Orpaz hit trips. "Sorry," Orpaz told him heading to the 7? turn, which left the Poker Hall of Famer drawing dead before the Q? fell on the river and heading off to collect his fourth-place payout.
"My friends yesterday were telling me I was stupid for agreeing to the deal. Now no deal. Kamikaze," Orpaz said.

Action folded to Erik Seidel in the small blind who moved all in for 450,000. Biao Ding in the big blind quickly gave up his hand.
Seidel also pushed all in the next hand from the button and received no customers, again taking down the blinds and antes.
"Erik adjusted to the table," Tom Orpaz said.
"Works every time," Seidel replied.
"Sixty percent of the time it works every time," Orpaz added.
A few hands later, Orpaz moved all in from the button, having both Seidel and Ding covered in the blinds, and both opponents quickly folded.
