Espen Sandvik Eliminated in 4th Place ($340,000)
Level 23
: Blinds 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante
Justin Steinbrenner raised to 560,000 under the gun and Espen Sandvik three-bet to 1,920,000 on the button. Steinbrenner then moved all in, and Sandvik called for 2,655,000.
Espen Sandvik: A♠A♦Q♥7♣
Justin Steinbrenner: A♣J♠J♦3♣
"How do I lose to these guys," Youness Barakat said when Steinbrenner revealed his jacks.
"Am I supposed to fold this?" Steinbrenner replied as the 6♥5♠4♠ flop kept Sandvik far in front with his aces. The turn, though, was the J♥ and Steinbrenner spiked a set to take the lead. The river was the 9♥, and Sandvik was eliminated in fourth place.
"One more," Sandvik joked with the dealer on his way to the exit.
