Chad Brown Eliminated in 3rd Place ($188,855)

[user46392]

Chad Brown raised on the button and Greg Mueller reraised out of the small blind. Back to Brown who four-bet all in -- and a call.

Brown: {Q-Spades}

Mueller:

Board: a straightalicious {5-Spades}

Thus to shouts of "Sui!" from Mueller's railers, Brown is our third place finisher, and at long, long last, we are heads up.

Pezzin Back in Contention

[user46392]

Wow, Pat Pezzin is making a real comeback here.

He raised from the button and was called by Greg Mueller in the big blind which left them staring at a {5-Hearts}

flop. They both checked.

Mueller checked the {7-Clubs}

turn too and Pezzin bet; Mueller called and they looked down at {3-Spades}

river. Mueller checked once more and insta-called the bet from Pezzin -- but Pezzin showed him {6-Diamonds}

for the straight, and Mueller mucked.

Pezzin's now up to 1.7 million, with Mueller still leader on 3.3 million and Chad Brown down to a piddling 450,000.

Tables Turn on the Short Stacks

[user46392]

Most unusually, Pat Pezzin limped in on the button and Chad Brown raised from the small blind. Call.

Brown bet out on the {10-Spades}

flop and the {7-Clubs}

turn and got himself called by Pezzin, and finally Brown check-called the {6-Clubs}

river. Pezzin turned over {8-Hearts}

and is up 1.2 million; Brown meanwhile is our new short stack on 900,000.

More for Mueller

[user46392]

Greg Mueller has extended his chip lead to 3.6 million -- well over half the chips in play -- after his {J-Diamonds}

hit the river of the {A-Spades}

board; Brown just mucked and is down to 1.1 million.

Pezzin Doubles Up

[user46392]

This tournament may never end.

Last hand before the break, and it's a full double up for Pat Pezzin to 950,000.

Chad Brown raised the button and Pezzin called in the big blind.

Come the {A-Clubs}

flop Pezzin check-raised and then called all in to a reraise. Brown had top pair with {A-Spades}

but Pezzin had a flush draw and a gutshot with {10-Clubs}

, the latter of which came in on the {J-Spades}

turn. An irrelevant {8-Diamonds}

on the river, and Pezzin was up to 950,000, Brown down to 1.55 million.

Mr Daniel Negreanu has appeared to rail.

Drunk railer: "Daniel, you're the best player ever!"

Negreanu: "Thank you. I disagree, but thank you. Have you ever seen Phil Ivey? He's scary."

Drunk railer: "Ok, you're the best Canadian player ever."

Negreanu: "Oh, screw that."
