Tom Scanlon opened his button to 90,000, and Tristran Coffin moved all in. Scanlon called off for 580,000 total, and the cards went on their backs.

Coffin: {A-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}
Scanlon: {A-Clubs}{2-Hearts}

Coffin was a big favorite to close it out, but Scanlon picked up some outs on the {3-Spades}{6-Clubs}{4-Clubs} flop. Both players paired their ace on the {A-Spades} turn, and Coffin sealed the victory when the {7-Clubs} peeled off on the river.

We'll have a full tournament recap for you later. Congratulations to Tristran Coffin for his victory in Event #3!
