Level 29 : 25,000/50,000, 5,000 ante
Phil Stelzer- 4th Place
Phil Stelzer- 4th Place

Ron Segni raised to 125,000 under the gun only to have Phil Stelzer move all in for 900,000. Segni, who had less chips, called for his tournament life and the cards were flipped:

Segni: {6-Diamonds}{6-Spades}
Stelzer: {A-Spades}{K-Diamonds}

It was a race and Stelzer pulled out in front when the flop came down {8-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{K-Clubs}. However, that all changed when Segni his the {6-Clubs} on the turn for a set. After the {Q-Diamonds} was put out on the river, Segni took down the 1.5 million pot while Stelzer was left with just 200,000.

A few hands later, Stelzer moved all in under the gun with {10-Spades}{8-Clubs} and was called by the {A-Hearts}{K-Diamonds} of Asheesh Boyapati. The board ran out {K-Spades}{3-Spades}{6-Spades}{2-Hearts}{3-Clubs} and Stelzer became the fourth place finished. As a consolation, Stelzer became the WSOP-Circuit Harrah's St. Louis Casino Champ with 82.5 points and locked up a spot on the National Championship $1 Million Freeroll in May.
