Coury Mascagni Eliminated in 4th Place ($37,500)

Coury Mascagni - 4th place
Coury Mascagni - 4th place

Coury Mascagni raised to 40,000 from the button, then Edward Pham three-bet to 105,000 from the big blind. Mascagni responded by shoving all in for approximately 830,000, and Pham was quick with the call.

Mascagni: {7-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}
Pham: {A-Hearts}{A-Clubs}

Mascagni needed help, but the flop came {Q-Clubs}{A-Spades}{K-Spades} to improve Pham further to a set, and the {8-Diamonds} turn made the {8-Clubs} river no matter.

"How many times have you had aces?" asked Chris Klodnicki afterwards. "And won with them?" he added.

Indeed, we've seen Pham knock out another opponent with pocket aces already (Joseph Tracy in sixth), and double through Micah Raskin earlier with aces, too.
