Jason Daniele moves all in on the button for 240,000 and Jed Hoffman calls out of the small blind. Daniele shows [Qd][Td] and needs help against Hoffman’s [As][8s].

The flop is [Qs][9s][6s], which gives Daniele top pair, but is drawing to runners against Hoffman’s nut flush. The turn is the [2c], leaving Daniele drawing dead to the [9c] river.

Daniele finishes in fifth and earns $2,030, while Hoffman overtakes Camilo Uribe for the chip lead.

Jed Hoffman – 1,200,000
