John Jay Magadan may have come in with an ailing stack of 38K but in the first hand of the final table, he moved all in, was called by chip leader Raymi Sanchez, then protected by Mike Takayama with a shove right behind. Getting out of the way, Sanchez folded and it was a showdown.
Magadan: K-J
Takayama: A-K
With the board running, 4♦ 9♦ J♣ 3♥ Q♠, Magadan landed a pair and tripled up.
