George Janssen raised to 400,000 on the button with {k-Diamonds}{5-Hearts} and Joey Hiudt called with {j-Spades}{10-Diamonds} in the small blind. Gregory Wood also came along from the big blind with {q-Clubs}{7-Clubs} and the flop came {10-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{2-Spades}.

Hiudt led out for 550,000 with top pair and Wood got out of the way while Janssen called with a pair of fives. The turn brought the {5-Spades} and Hiudt shoved all in for 2,295,000. Janssen made a quick call after making the best hand and Hiudt couldn't believe what he saw.

Hiudt was drawing to just two outs and the {6-Hearts} on the river was not one of them. Hiudt exited the tournament in third place but will still take home nearly $50,000 for his efforts today.

The final two players are taking a quick break while the table is prepared for heads-up play.
