Albert Son

Zachary Fischer raised from the hijack to 550,000, Albert Son moved all in from the cutoff for 4,575,000, and Fischer quickly called with KhKc.

Son turned over AhQc, and he needed to improve to stay alive.

The board came 7d3h5cQd10d, and Son paired his queen on the turn, but improved no further. Fischer won the pot with his pocket kings to eliminate Son in ninth place.
