First place in this heat gets 16 points, second place gets 11 points and third place gets eight points. Roland De Wolfe can make the final table with a win, Phil Hellmuth has to outlast Daniel Negreanu and Negreanu just has to lock up second place. You do the math from there.

Luke Schwartz Eliminated in 4th Place ($12,000)

Daniel Negreanu raised to 60,000 with the {Q-Spades}{Q-Clubs}. Phil Hellmuth tanked for about five minutes with the {Q-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}, looking like he might make a move. He ended up folded and then Roland De Wolfe folded the {J-Diamonds}{3-Clubs} from the small blind. Luke Schwartz was all in from the big blind after having 30,000 of his 50,000 posted and then calling all in. He had {7-Hearts}{5-Hearts}.

The board ran out {Q-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{2-Clubs}{6-Spades}{3-Hearts} and Schwartz finished in fourth place, taking home six points.

Hellmuth Right Back In It

Phil Hellmuth moved all in for 270,000 with two red sevens. Daniel Negreanu woke up with the {A-Diamonds}{K-Diamonds} in the big blind and made the call.

The flop came down {K-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{4-Diamonds} and Hellmuth fell behind Negreanu's pair of kings. The turn was an interesting card when the {5-Diamonds} rolled off. It gave Hellmuth some extra outs for a straight.

The river was the {7-Spades} and just like that, Hellmuth was back in his seat collecting the pot. He's back over 500,000 now and right back in this thing.
