After a preflop betting war, Rommel Santos and Elias Travis got al of their chips into the middle, with Santos' tournament life on the line.
Rommel Santos: K♣K♠
Elias Travis: A♥10♥
Santos was in the lead with his kings, but the flop of J♥7♥4♦ was not the best as Travis picked up the nut flush draw. And just like that, the turn was the 3♥ to leave him drawing dead and the river just added insult to injury as it was the K♥ to give him top set.
"Yes!" Travis shout triumphantly as the big pot was pushed his way and the players prepared to combine for the final able while Santos was eliminated in 10th place.

On a three-way flop of Q♣3♠10♥, Elias Travis checked, James Allen Turner bet 500,000, and then Francis Nguyen moved all in for 1,200,000.
Travis quickly got out of the way but Turner thought about it for some time, using a time bank before he shrugged and tossed in a call chip.
Francis Nguyen: K♥J♥
James Allen Turner: J♠J♦
Turner was in the lead with his pocket jacks, but the turn came the A♠ to immediately give Nguyen the nut straight. Only a king could chop the pot, but the river was another A♦ to award the pot to Nguyen.

On a flop of 6♣5♦9♦, James Allen Turner and Elias Travis had a back-and-forth betting war before all of the chips got into the middle, with Turner at risk.
"Yeah, I'm gonna need some help," Turner admitted as he flipped over his cards.
James Allen Turner: 7♠4♠
Elias Travis: Q♦4♦
"Wow, queen-high is good right now," Turner said as he shook his head.
The runout of 5♥K♥ failed to provide any improvements to either player, which meant Travis took the pot with queen-high while Turner exited in ninth place.
