Andrew Dean Elimated in 78th Place ($88,070)

Jacob Balsiger opened to 100,000 from the cutoff, Jean Malherbe three-bet to 230,000 on the button, and Andrew Dean moved all in for 1.11 million from the big blind. Balsiger folded, and Malherbe made the call.

Malherbe{a-Spades}{10-Spades}
Dean{5-Hearts}{5-Clubs}

The {6-Spades}{7-Hearts}{9-Hearts} flop gave Malherbe a gut-shot straight draw, and the {9-Diamonds} on the turn gave him six more outs to counterfeit Dean's under pair. The {7-Clubs} spiked on the river, giving Malherbe nines and sevens with an ace, and eliminating Dean from the tournament.
