Alexis Rivera moved all in from the cutoff for 9,000,000, and Moshe Refaelovitz tanked for a while before he called all in from the big blind for 8,900,000 with AsQs.

Rivera turned over Ks7s, and their nearly identical stacks made it do-or-die for both of them.

The board came 9h5s5cQcJd, and Refaelovitz won the pot with two pair, queens and fives, to double up in chips, knocking Rivera down to a single chip and a chair.

Moshe Refaelovitz  –  18,550,000  (37 bb)
Alexis Rivera  –  100,000  (<1 sb)

With six players remaining from a field of 699, the average chip stack is around 11,650,000 (23 big blinds). The remaining players are guaranteed at least $22,800 each.
