Matthew Wantman Eliminated in 3rd Place ($530,000)
Level 27
: Blinds 250,000/500,000, 500,000 ante
Fahredin Mustafov shoved the small blind and Matthew Wantman called in the big blind.
Matthew Wantman: 9♥9♦
Fahredin Mustafov: 6♦5♦
Wantman had a big lead, but was made to sweat as the 3♠4♣Q♣ flop gave Mustafov an open-ended straight draw. A K♦ on the turn changed nothing, but the 7♠ on the river sent Wantman to the rail in third as Mustafov made a straight.
