Spencer Baker was in middle position and got his stack in before the flop against Jens Thomsen, who was in the small blind. Baker covered Thomsen by about 400,000.

Spencer Baker: {K-Hearts}{10-Clubs}
Jens Thomsen: {K-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts}

Thomsen had the lead with the better king and Baker needed to improve in order to stack him. The board ran out {K-Spades}{9-Clubs}{2-Spades}{2-Diamonds}{5-Clubs} and Thomsen took the pot to double up.
