Todd Wood Eliminated in 4th Place ($40,573)

Level 29 : 25,000/50,000, 10,000 ante
Todd Wood - 4th place
Todd Wood - 4th place

In a battle of the blinds, Todd Wood opened to 110,000, and Josh Evans shoved all in for 870,000 total. The stacks were very close, and Wood made the call to put one of them at risk -- though nobody was sure exactly who just yet.

Showdown
Wood: {K-Hearts} {7-Hearts}
Evans: {K-Clubs} {Q-Hearts}

Wood was in a bad spot, but he managed to pick up a draw by the time fourth street rolled around on the {J-Diamonds} {5-Spades} {4-Spades} {8-Spades} board. He needed to find a six or a seven to drag the pot, but the river {K-Diamonds} was no help. When the stacks were counted down, Wood and his 840,000 chips were covered, and he is thusly out in fourth place. That's good for more than $40,000, and that's not too bad for a Wednesday.

Evans is back up to about 1.75 million now.
