Derek Baker raised his small blind before Shean Lai went all in for 5,300,000 from the big blind. Baker quickly called, putting Lai at risk.

Shean Lai: A?J?
Derek Baker: J?10?

Lai had the dominating hand, but Baker flopped a flush draw on 7?9?3?. The 5? turn completed it, and Lai had no outs left to hit as the Q? river brought Baker a useless sixth heart.

Lai wished his former opponents well and headed out to collect his winnings of �21,475 for his fifth place.

Baker Secures Huge Double Up Through Shine

What may well end up being the defining moment of the tournament has just taken place.

Tomas Geleziunas opened to 800,000 under the gun and was three-bet to 2,000,000 by Derek Baker in the next seat.

Action folded to Cathal Shine in the small blind who pondered his options for some time before producing the cold four-bet jam for 14,000,000.

Geleziunas quickly got out of the way and Baker quickly made the call, with Baker the player at risk.

Derek Baker: A?A?
Cathal Shine: A?K?

In an absolute cooler Shine had run his ace-king straight into Derek Baker's aces for an enormous pot.

The runout of 3?5?4?9?Q? did not provide an unlikely rescue for Shine and Baker propelled himself into the chip lead.

Shean Lai raised to 800,000 from under the gun and Derek Baker defended his big blind. The 4?A?6? flop saw Baker check-call a 400,000 continuation-bet from Lai before the J? turn was dealt.

Baker then promptly shoved all in for 3,950,000. Lai asked for a count and committed a call not long after.

Derek Baker: J?6?
Shean Lai: A?8?

Baker had turned two pair and had taken the initiative with his over-bet. The 5? river did not upgrade Lai's hand, and most of his stack went Baker's way, who ended up with an eight-figure stack.

Derek Baker min-raised to 600,000 from under the gun and the action folded to Tomas Geleziunas, who defended his big blind.

The K?6?6? flop and 4? turn was then checked by both players before Geleziunas made a bet of 1,000,000 on the 2? river. Baker quickly called, but mucked his cards just as quickly when he got shown A?8? for the nut flush.

Level 31 : Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante

Shean Lai open-raised from the cutoff before Cathal Shine three-bet his button. The blinds folded before Lai made the call, creating a 3,850,000 pot.

The 8?Q?7? was subsequentially checked by both players before Lai bet 750,000 on the 2? turn. Shine called and "Barry" came looking on the A? river.

Lai down-sized to 400,000 chips and Shine made a quick call. Lai tabled Q?J? for a pair of queens, but it was no longer good against the A?K? of Shine, who had rivered the better pair.

John Hanaphy was down to his last 1,500,000 chips, which he got in from the hijack. The action then folded to Denis Brosnahan in the big blind, who immediately made the call.

John Hanaphy: K?2?
Denis Brosnahan: 8?8?

Brosnahan flopped a full house on A?8?A?, and the 2? turn sealed the deal for Hanaphy. He stood up and said his goodbyes while his stack was sent Brosnahan's way.

Cathal Shine raised his button to 600,000 before Ivan Tononi three-bet jammed for 1,975,000 from the small blind. Shine spent a few minutes in the tank before claiming he got too good of a price and stuck in the call.

Ivan Tononi: A?A?
Cathal Shine: Q?5?

Shine paired his queen on the K?3?Q? flop for a sweat. The 7? was a blank, but the 5? river saw Shine hit two pair to crack Tononi's aces.

Tononi quickly vacated the final table with a disgusted look on his face, while Shine recouperated some previously lost chips.
