Nicolas Fountotos moved all in for about 125,000 from the hijack, and Liam He moved all in from the small blind for about 275,000. Robin Hegele was in the big blind and thought for about a minute before calling.

Fountotos: {k-Hearts}{j-Spades}
He: {a-Clubs}{5-Clubs}
Hegele: {k-Spades}{q-Clubs}

The board ran out {9-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{q-Hearts}, giving Hegele a pair of queens on the river to eliminate both Fountotos and He in the same hand.

Hegele now sits with 5.2 million in chips atop the leader board.
