Level 31
: 80,000/160,000, 20,000 ante
Mike Sowers opened to 340,000 with 
from early position and Chris Oliver three-bet to 775,000 with 
on the button. Sowers called.
The flop fell 
and Sowers checked to Oliver who continued for over a million. Sowers check-raised all in for over 5 million and Oliver snapped it off.
Sowers was sick when he saw Oliver's hand and needed running straight cards or a four for a set.
The 
on the turn eliminated all straight possibilities and Sowers was left with just two outs to stay alive.
The river was the 
however and Sowers was eliminated from the tournament in 5th place taking home $700,000.
The four remaining players are all guaranteed a million dollars and Oliver commands a massive chip lead with over 27 million.
