Daniel Negreanu raised to 750,000 on the button and Bryce Yockey announced pot to 2,225,000. Negreanu called and they saw the flop come 7?6?2?.
Yockey then potted again, making it 4,750,000. Negreanu moved all in for 5,125,000 and Yockey snap-called.
Daniel Negreanu: 9?8?4?2? 
Bryce Yockey: A?A?J?J?
Yockey was ahead with his aces, while Negreanu had a pair and straight draw. The K? turn left Yockey one card away from the title, but Negreanu hit the 2? on the river to make trips as he triumphantly raised his arms in the air and let out a fist pump before raking in the double up.
