After fourteen hands of relatively tame back and forth action in which everyone won a little something and no one lost any large hands, we found ourselves face to face with the final table’s second departure.
With the button on seat 3 playing 8-handed, most of the table folded around to Daniel Dubeau in seat 2, who raised it to 240,000. Alexander Wong shoved all in on the button for what looked like 1,100,000. Daniel called with confidence, and both players flipped over their cards.
