Event 2: 6th Place - Hadad

Or Hadad - $5,529

Or Hadad's final blow comes from chip leader Chris Valence, who adds 150k to his stack. But it's a hand against Valence with two tables left that has Hadad (Beer-Sheva, Israel) shaking his head.

Hadad began the hand with 450k while holding pocket 3s. The board is 4 2 7 and all the money gets in with Valence tabling 5 6 for an open ended straight draw.

Valence and his 300k are at risk, but a river 8 gives him the straight and a huge pot. "I would've taken it down for sure if I win that pot," says Hadad who finishes in 6th place for $5,529.

Valence continues to run over the table and has nearly half the 2.85 million chips in play.
