Lionel Barracano completed from the small blind and Kevin Song checked his option in the big blind.

Song called and tabled 10♣10♦, besting the 7♥5♦ of Barracano.
With players back from break, Kevin Song completed from the small blind, and Donald Briggs checked his option in the big blind.

A few hands later, Lionel Barracano raised to 2,400,000 from the button and Song three-bet to 11,500,000 from the small blind. That was enough to earn Song the pot as both players folded.
With three players remaining, Kevin Song requested a quick five-minute break to relieve himself, but a couple of the other players indicated they didn't need one.
Unfazed, Song shot out of his chair and briskly made his way to the nearest restroom. The table ultimately agreed to a short break.
Kevin Song raised to 2,100,000 from under the gun and Paul McMullin three-bet jammed in the small blind for about 7,000,000 to put himself at risk. Song made the call.
Paul McMullin: A♠A♥
Kevin Song: Q♣10♣
Song paired his ten on the 10♦K♥8♦ flop, but McMullin still remained in the lead with his pair of aces.
The 9♥ turn gave Song additional outs with a gutshot, and the 10♠ rolled off on the river, giving him trip tens to crack McMullin's aces.
Kevin Song raised to 2,500,000 from the small blind and Donald Briggs defended from the big blind.
Song fired a continuation-bet of 2,700,000 on the 6♣5♦8♥ flop, and Briggs gave it some thought before tossing his cards into the muck.
Action folded around to Lionel Barracano in the small blind, who moved all in for 10,300,000 to put himself at risk. After a moment of thought, Kevin Song flicked in the call from the big blind.
Lionel Barracano: K♥8♦
Kevin Song: 5♥5♠
Barracano pulled ahead on the 4♣K♣A♦ flop, pairing his king. The turn brought the J♣ and the river fell the 2♦, earning him the double-up to take over the chip lead.
