The first big hand of the final table evolved 25 minutes into the day's first level.

Roman Shainiuk opened to 90,000 from early position, and Paul Chai three-bet to 285,000 from the hijack. Travis Fujisakavis Fujisaka then started counting out pink T100,000 chips, appearing like he was ready to make a big move.

Fujisaka did just that, four-betting to 900,000. Shainiuk quickly folded.

Paul Chaii then went all in with the rest of his 3,100,000 total stack, and Fujisaka snap called.

Travis Fujisaka: {q-Hearts}{q-Clubs}
Paul Chai: {j-Spades}{j-Diamonds}

Board: {8-Hearts}{5-Spades}{7-Spades}{6-Spades}{8-Diamonds}

It was about as good of a situation as Fujisaka could hope for, with the queens well ahead of Paul Chaii's pocket jacks. The runout came out pure for Fujisaka, who scored a big double at the final table.
