With the board showing Jd10d3c5s on the turn and about 100K already in the pot, Zhen Cai checked from the big blind, Jesse Lonis bet 67,000 from under the gun, and Cai check-raised all in for 138,000.

Lonis called with Ad2d for a diamond flush draw with a gutshot straight draw, and Cai turned over KhKd. Cai needed his hand to hold to stay alive.

The river card was the 9c, and Cai won the pot with his pocket kings to double up two spots away from the money.

Zhen Cai  –  375,000  (38 bb)
Jesse Lonis  –  330,000  (33 bb)

With 111 players remaining from a field of 865, the average chip stack is around 390,000 (39 big blinds). The final 109 players will finish in the money, with a min-cash worth $9,700.
