2014 WPT500 Las Vegas Champion Sean Yu raises to 25,000 from under the gun and Matthew Waxman (pictured) calls on the button, as does Stephen Nussrallah in the big blind.

The flop lands Heart 7Club 7Diamond 2 and after Nussrallah checks, Yu continues for 40,000. Waxman calls, and Nussrallah folds before the turn lands the Heart 6.

Yu checks, Waxman bets 60,000, and Yu calls as the Diamond Q falls on the river.

Yu knuckles over to Waxman again, and the Season XVI WPT Tournament of Champions Winner bets 170,000.

After using one of his time extension chips, Yu calls. Waxman tables his Spade KClub Q for queens-up, and Yu flicks his cards to the muck.

Matthew Waxman – 990,000
Sean Yu – 95,000
