Khang Pham raised to 2,400,000 out of the small blind. Renmei Liu three-bet to 11,000,000 from the big blind with roughly 8,000,000 behind. Pham four-bet jammed to put Liu all-in and Liu made the call.
Renmei Liu: 8♣8♦ 
Khang Pham: A♠K♠
The 9♠4♦J♠ flop gave Pham a flush a draw, and when the Q♠ came on the turn, Liu was drawing dead. An inconsequential 6♥ fell on the river, and Liu was the third-place finisher in the tournament.

Renmei Liu shoved all-in from the button for 18,200,000. Marc Wolpert asked the count from the dealer before making the call from the small blind to put Liu at risk.
Renmei Liu: J♣J♠
Marc Wolpert A♥Q♣
The 8♦4♠A♠ flop was great for Wolpert. The Q♥ turn meant only a two-outer on the river could keep Liu alive. Liu was screaming "jack of hearts, jack of hearts!" to the dealer. The dealer complied as the J♥ fell on the river, awarding Liu with the miracle he needed to double up.

Earlier this year on an ordinary Monday afternoon, a bespectacled man walked into the Gold & Silver Pawn Shop on Las Vegas Blvd. Tucked under his arm was an uninteresting box that only he knew contained something rather interesting – a pair of gold watches dating back more than 40 years.
These were not your run-of-the-mill wristwear, but rather evidence of a unique and often overlooked time of poker history, a year when the World Series of Poker (WSOP) gold bracelet, now the game’s highest accolade, was replaced in favor of watches.
The man holding the box was David Sklansky, who in 1978 forever changed poker by advocating a mathematical approach to the game in his groundbreaking book The Theory of Poker. Nicknamed “The Mathematician,” he proved his prowess just four years later when he won two WSOP tournaments in five days.
First, he won the 1982 WSOP Event #7: $800 Mixed Doubles Limit Seven Card Stud, a tournament that paired one man with one woman, alongside Dani Kelly, and followed that up by taking down Event #12: $1,000 Limit 5-Card Draw High. A year later, the Binions reverted back to the beloved bracelets players know today, and Sklansky captured his third piece of WSOP hardware by winning Event #11: $1,000 Limit Omaha.
It was a remarkable accomplishment, and for more than four decades he’s kept safe the evidence of his victories, both of which still worked. So, why was Sklansky carrying his 1982 WSOP gold watches, two of only 15 ever awarded, into a pawn shop? Well, he was looking to sell them of course, but not to just any of the dozens of pawn shops spread across Las Vegas. Oh no, he was walking into arguably the most famous pawn shop in the world, the home to the wildly popular television show Pawn Stars, and he was there to do it with cameras rolling.

Marc Wolpert raised out of the small blind to 2,600,000 and Khang Pham called from the big blind.
Wolpert bet 2,500,000 on the 9♣Q♣9♠ flop and Pham called.
The A♠ turn saw Pham call a bet of 3,600,000 from Wolpert.
Wolpert opted to check the 10♣ river over to Pham. Pham thought long and hard, meticulously counting his chips. Eventually, he slid out a bet of 8,700,000 which prompted a quick fold from Wolpert
