Scott Freeman has the button in Seat 1. Action folds around to Aliaksandr Dzianisau, who makes it 140,000 to go. Freeman makes the call from the button and both blinds fold, sending the action heads up to the flop.

Flop: {4-Hearts} {5-Clubs} {8-Spades}

Aliaksandr Dzianisau open-shoves the flop for 115,000 and Freeman makes the call with {A-Diamonds} {Q-Spades}, well ahead of Dzianisau's {A-Hearts} {J-Clubs}. Fortunately for Dzianisau, the turn and river come {2-Clubs}, {3-Diamonds} giving both players a wheel straight and they chop the pot.

Phung Ngo - 8th Place
Aliaksandr Dzianisau has the button in Seat 7.

Max Greenwood raises to 50,000. Curt Kohlberg folds, and Rene Mouritsen reraises to 170,000. Action comes to Phung Ngo in the small blind, and he moves all in for a total of 250,000. Greenwood ducks out, and Rene Mouritsen makes the call for the additional 90,000.

Mouritsen: {A-Clubs} {J-Diamonds}
Ngo: {8-Spades} {8-Hearts}

Ngo is all in, and at risk of elimination, racing for his tournament life. The dealer runs out the board: {10-Hearts} {A-Diamonds} {4-Clubs} {6-Hearts} {5-Spades}. Mouritsen catches his pair on the flop, and Ngo can't find another eight. He is eliminated in eighth place, and will pick up a check for nearly $90,000 for his work over the last three days.

Jesse Chinni has the button in Seat 9. Action folds around to Albert Iversen who makes it 55,000 to go. Jesse Chinni makes the call and sees a flop of {3-Spades} {4-Clubs} {5-Hearts}.

Both players check the flop and the turn brings the {J-Diamonds}. Iversen then leads out with a 75,000 bet and Chinni makes the call.

The last card off the deck is the {9-Diamonds} and Iversen fires again, this time making it 175,000 to play. Chinni makes the call and Iversen turns over {J-Spades} {10-Spades} for a pair of jacks which is good enough to take down the pot.
