Asher Conniff raised to 1,500,000 and Samuel Rosborough responded with a raised to 4,500,000. Conniff went all in and Rosborough smashed a stack in the middle.

Samuel Rosborough: K♠K♥ All in
Asher Conniff: 8♠8♦

Conniff's rail was on their feet rooting for an eight but as the board ran out Q♥Q♦5♣J♣A♠, it was Rosborough's rail that rang out with, "Let's go, Sam!! Let's go!".

The Very Next Hand:

Conniff doubled when he got the last of chips in with 8♠7♠ and paired against the 4♣3♦ of Rosborough.

A Few Hands Later

Conniff doubled with 8♣8♥ against Rosborough's A♦Q♠ when the board ran out 10♠2♥5♥8♦4♠.

Rosborough still has a commanding lead but Conniff is still in contention.

After a bit of back and forth, where Samuel Rosborough put pressure on Asher, they both found themselves on a 7♦6♣A♥ flop after Rosborough called his small blind and Asher Conniff checked.

Rosborough checked to Conniff, and he made it 700,000, which his opponent called.

On the 3♣ turn, Rosborough checked once more, and Conniff fired another bet of 2,100,000 and got a call.

With the Q♣ on the river, play didn't change. Rosborough checked to Conniff, who bet 3,700,000. This time, Rosborough took his time but made the call in the end. Conniff showed Q♠Q♦ for set queens and took down the pot.

Michael Rossitto raised to 1,800,000 from the small blind and Samuel Rosborough responded with an all in. Rossitto beat him in the pot with a call.

Michael Rossitto: A♥K♥ All in
Samuel Rosborough: 2♣2♠

The flop gave Rossitto more outs with the Q♦5♠Q♣, making the 6♣ another sweat but when the 7♠ fell, Rosborough clapped his hand and ran to his rail to celebrate getting to heads up.

Conniff offered Rossitto a compassionate handshake and Rosborough circled back to shake hands with the third place finisher.

Samuel Rosborough raised to 2,200,000 from the small blind, and Asher Conniff in the big blind called.

On the 3♦10♥Q♦ flop, Rosborough continued for 1,600,000, and Conniff called again.

Rosborough put it up on the 2♥ turn and fired another bet for 4,500,000. Conniff went into the tank but made the call after a while.

Both players checked the 7♦ river, and Rosborough's card went on their back first, showing Q♣8♣, a pair of queens, which seemed enough for Conniff as his cards found the muck.

The Rail is Electric; Punjarojanakul Doubles

The rail has become tightly clustered as a litany of adult beverages line the semi-circle around the feature table. Factions from each competitor have made their presence knowns with custom cheers and applause.

It folded to Tanupat Punjarojanakul in the small blind and he went all in for 3,610,000. Michael Rossitto's card snapped as he looked at them and suck in the callll.

Tanupat Punjarojanakul: K♣J♠ All in
Michael Rossitto: 8♣8♠

Both rails were craning their neck and cheering for their desired outcome as the 5♠7♠4♦ fanned out on the felt.

It looked even better for Rossitto with the 10♣
on the turn but Punjarojanakul turned their volume up to 11 when the K♠
snapped off on the river.

"T-pot! Let's go T-pot! King on the river, we're back!"

"Can't win them all...", Rossitto shrugged.
