Galen Hall min-raises under the gun to 160,000, and Farzad Bonyadi thinks for a bit before he moves all in for 1,115,000. Hall calls with A10, and Bonyadi is a huge favorite to double up with AA.

The board comes Q65QK, and Bonyadi wins the pot with his pocket aces to double up in chips.

Seat 1. Galen Hall - 3,900,000
Seat 2. Justin Young - 2,630,000
Seat 3. Tony Gargano - 2,655,000
