![[user80015]](/img/avatars/avatar.svg){kind=avatar}
"I wanna get my money in with the worst hand, suck out and double . . . then get my money in with the worst hand, suck out and double again! Then when I finally get some chips, then I'll start playing poker!"

Costner moved all in for 2.855 more, making the total bet 3.905 million. Kostritsyn mucked and Costner picked up the pot to move to 6.6 million. Kostritsyn dropped to 3.85 million.
Thorson Flexes
William Thorson continues to flex his muscle early on Day 7. After limping in preflop, Thorson then called the raise to 135,000 from Evan Lamprea to see a flop of 
.
Thorson checked in the dark and Lamprea bet 215,000. Thorson made the call as the 
hit the turn. Both players checked and the 
completed the board on the river. Thorson bet out 390,000 and it was enough to take it down as Lamprea tossed his cards into the muck.

Bellande Busts
Jeff Banghart opened to 130,000 from middle position only to have Jean-Robert Bellande move all in for 815,000 from the button.
With the action on Duy Le in the big blind, he cut out a re-raise amounting to 1,350,000. Although the four-bet had both players covered, it was technically not enough, and Le was forced to make it 1,490,000 to go.
"Oh boy! I need a second" stated Banghart as he deliberated for over two minutes before open-folding 
.
Bellande:
Le: 
With Bellande on his feet, the dealer dropped a 
flop to leave Bellande drawing to a ten or running cards for a straight.
The on the turn cut out all of Bellande's backdoor outs, and left him with just one of the lone tens in the deck.
"Ten please dealer" pleaded Bellande as he awaited his Main Event fate.
Unfortunately for BrokeLivingJRB, the river would fall the to see him eliminated and sent to the exit amongst a round of applause.
Statz Kicks Meloche to the Rail

. There was about 300,000 in the pot. Statz checked and Meloche fired 150,000. Statz check-raised to 550,000. Meloche reraised all in for 1.53 million and Statz called.

A Bonus for Bellande
With the elimination of Jean-Robert Bellande in 78th place, he takes home $94,942. His impressive WSOP Main Event run has earned him a bit more than that, however, thanks to a side bet between Bellande and Justin "BoostedJ" Smith.
As we reported on PokerNews earlier this year, Bellande and Smith made a bet for an undisclosed amount over who would earn the most at this year's WSOP. Word was Bellande got 2:1 on his money that his tourney winnings would exceed that of Smith.
A quick check of the stats shows Smith cashed five times at this summer's WSOP for a total of $101,714. A nice Series, for sure.
Bellande, meanwhile, had two cashes prior to the Main Event for a total of $25,848. That means his Main Event finish carries him past Smith in overall winnings -- to $120,790 -- thus ensuring Bellande wins the bet.
Don't know how much of a bonus Bellande is getting for winning his bet with Smith. Whatever it is, the former "Survivor" star definitely benefited from surviving this far.
Rain Falls On Banghart
Sergey Rybachenko opened to 120,000 from under the gun, only to have Matt Harris move all in for 1,060,000.
With the action on Jeff Banghart in the small blind, he moved all in for roughly 880,000 and Rybachenko laid his hand down.
Banghart:
Harris:
The window card of the 
saw a now-standing Banghart's head sink as the remainder of the flop fell 
.
Calling for all types of cards to give him a sweat, Banghart was delivered one of them as the landed on the turn.
"Nine please!" asked Banghart.
"You gotta be more specific so that it comes" added Tony Dunst.
"Allright the then" added Banghart.
Unfortunately for "MrRain" the river landed the to send him to the rail as Harris climbs to over 2,000,000 in chips.
No More Nassif
Ronnie Bardah raised it up to 135,000 from the cutoff position before Gabriel Nassif moved all in from the small blind for his last 950,000 chips. Bardah made the call.
Nassif: 
Bardah:
