"He slow rolled me that's why I knew I'd win." Mason Vieth was confident he'd get there on Pablo Aldaco when Aldaco hesitated to table his hand after going all in.

On the last hand of 1,500/3,000/3,000, Aldaco opened UTG to 7,000. Vieth 3-bet from the button to 20,000 and action folded back to Aldaco. Aldaco put in the 4-bet jam for roughly 37,000 and Vieth flicked in the one chip call.

Aldaco: Q♠Q♦
Vieth: J♥J♣

Vieth was behind but not for long as the flop brought A♥J♦7♣. Aldaco would have to find the 2-outer but went unimproved on the 6♣ and 3♦.

As players approach the final two tables of Flight C, they also approach the money bubble. 11 players will finish in the money with 5 players moving on to Day 2.

Flight C Payouts
1st-5th: DAY TWO
