Nicholas Petitti was all in and at risk for around 20,000 or so preflop with {a-Hearts}{k-Hearts}, and Jay Dragland had him at risk with {a-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}.

Both players made a pair of aces on the {a-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{q-Hearts} flop, and Dragland took a commanding lead when the turn brought the {10-Clubs}. The {9-Diamonds} bricked off on the river, and Petitti was eliminated.

At the neighboring table, we saw Scott Seiver get up from his chair and the dealer yell, "Payout!"

When we arrived, the board was completed {9-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{j-Spades}{j-Clubs}{4-Spades} and {a-Diamonds}{a-Spades} was sitting in front of Pierre Neuville. Neuville said Seiver flopped top two pair - this is obviously impossible because Seiver would've then made a full house - so we are to assume that Seiver may have had {9-}{5-} and was counterfeited on the turn.

While all of this was happening, Andrea Dato busted Viet Vo, Amanda Musumeci took out Kevin Saul, and Bjorn Li exited with unknown action.
