Grant Levy opened the pot with a raise to 32,000 from late position. Ali Khalil then reraised all in for a total of 127,000 from the button. Tim Heath made the call from the small blind and Levy folded, setting up a Khalil v. Heath showdown:

Khalil: {9-Diamonds} {9-Clubs}
Heath: {A-Hearts} {K-Clubs}

The board then filled out {10-Hearts} {J-Clubs} {4-Diamonds} {3-Hearts} {Q-Diamonds} giving Heath the nut Broadway straight. Khalil earned $7,380 for his 18th place finish, while Heath moved to 724,000 in chips.
