Duy Doc Vu cracked Dean Blatt's aces to bring the field down to 15 just minutes after play restarted after the break.

It was Vu the man in the drivers' seat initially, opening to 110,000 from the button with Blatt clicking it back from the small blind. Vu four-bet and Blatt five-bet to 475,000, which Vu called after a little time in the tank.

The {8-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}{2-Hearts} flop are where the fireworks went off, with Vu check-raising Blatt's 265,000 continuation bet and being beaten into the pot.

Dean Blatt: {a-Spades}{a-Clubs}
Duy Doc Vu: {6-Hearts}{4-Hearts}

Vu had a six-high flush draw and Blatt was unable to fade the hearts, with it coming straight in on the {k-Hearts} turn and the {j-Hearts} river was not the ace Blatt needed to survive.

Blatt headed for the cash desk to collect AU$22,030 for his 16th place finish, while Vu stacked up to 3.7 million after that timely catch.
