Stewart Scott has the button. He raises to 200,000 and Elliot Smith makes his move. He raises all in from the big blind and Scott stands up and asks for a count. The tournament staff count out the chips and determines that it's 1,195,000 more to make the call. Scott does in fact call and shows {Q-Clubs}

. Smith's

is a slightly ahead as his tournament life hangs in the balance.

The flop comes {9-Spades}

and Smith stays in the lead for the moment. The turn is the {K-Hearts}

which gives Scott a straight draw and more outs to eliminate Smith from the tournament. Elliot Smith must dodge a ten, jack or queen to stay alive and manages to do so when the {7-Spades}

falls on the river.

Elliot Smith doubles back up to 2,850,000 while Stewart Scott is still going strong with 8,135,000.
