Eric Baldwin made it 40,000 to play from the cutoff only for Yuanzhi Cao sat on the button to three-bet to 90,000. Action came back to Baldwin who four-bet all in for 525,000 and had Cao covered. Cao thought for a while and announced, "It's been nice playing with you gentlemen," and tossed in the call.

Yuanzhi Cao: A♠K♠ All in
Eric Baldwin: K♣Q♣

Just the door card that Cao ordered on the A♣3♥10♦ flop and when the 9♦ peeled off on the turn Baldwin was drawing dead. The 2♦ came on the river to seal the deal and Cao was shipped the pot for a double-up.
