Shaun Deeb was out of position in a heads-up pot against Chun Keat Liu on a flop of 5♣K♥Q♣.
Deeb checked on the flop and Liu bet 80,000. Deeb check-jammed a stack of around 500,000 and Liu gave it some thought before folding. Deeb considered showing his opponent what he had but decided to keep it a secret.
Maksim Vaskresenski open-jammed a stack of 115,000 from under the gun and Manuel Pochat re-shoved from the next seat to get things heads-up.
Maksim Vaskresenski: 8♦8♠
Manuel Pochat: 6♠6♥
Vaskresenski had the better pair and stayed ahead on the 10♦9♦Q♥ flop and 8♥ turn that gave him a set. However, the river brought the 7♣ to give Pochat a straight as the Millionaire Maker final tabllist was eliminated.

Gavin Andreanoff: Q♠Q♣
Nick Schulman: J♠10♠
The board ran out J♦4♠9♣5♥9♠ and Andreanoff held on with pocket queens to beat Schulman and his flopped pair of jacks.
