The action folded to Shane O'Connell in the small blind, who ripped in his entire stack of 2,400,000 chips. Cathal Shine was waiting in the big blind and made a snap call with the covering stack.

Shane O'Connell: A?6?
Cathal Shine: A?Q?

The Q?5?J? flop saw Shine take a gigantic lead with his paired queen, and the 8? turn was the nail in the coffin for O'Connell. The 5? river did not matter anymore, and O'Connell said his goodbyes before he gathered his belongings and headed homewards.

There were ten players remaining when this hand concluded, meaning that the tournament has now reached the final table bubble.
