Alexandre Reard Eliminated in 2nd Place ($610,013)
Alexandre Reard min-raised the button to 500,000 and Michael Rocco called from the big blind.
They both saw a flop of 4♣Q♦5♥ which Rocco checked, Reard bet 500,000, and Rocco called.
When the 3♠ landed on the turn, Rocco checked, Reard bet 900,000, and Rocco shoved all in. Reard had just over 8,000,000 remaining in his stack and snap-called.
Alexandre Reard: Q♠5♠ 
Michael Rocco: 4♠3♦
Both players hit two pair but it was Reard who was in the lead and a huge favorite to win the hand which would see him regain the chip lead. There was still a card to sweat and if Rocco could find a three or a four, he would clinch the title.
Rocco and his rail erupted as the dealer burned and turned the 3♥, which improved him to a full house, and eliminated Reard in second.
