Stephen Song called for 20,000 under the gun before Shaun Deeb, and Benjamin Moon also called in middle position. Bohdan Slyvinskyi raised it up to 85,000 from the button, Song folded, but Deeb called as did Moon.

Slyvinskyi bet 115,000 after he was checked to on a flop of and Deeb moved all in. The action was on Moon at this point, and he used a bit of thinking time before also putting his last 270,000 into the middle. Slyvinskyi was facing the two shoves but quickly called.

River:

Moon had hit a set of deuces on the flop and was well ahead of both Deeb and Slyvinskyi who held a pair of aces respectively. Moon improved to a full house on the turn and by the river had trebled his stack, left Slyvinskyi short and had Deeb heading to the payout desk.

It was a great run for Deeb who had been multi-tabling this event alongside Event #14: $1,500 No-Limit 2-7 Lowball Draw both yesterday and today, ultimately finishing in third-place for $36,330.
