Shannon Shorr - 7th Place

Hand #47: Phil Galfond raised to 80,000 on the button, Shannon Shorr three-bet to 220,000 out of the small blind, and Galfond called.

The dealer fanned {6-Spades}{5-Spades}{7-Hearts}, and Shorr led out for 290,000. Galfond moved all in for effectively 1.45 million, and Shorr called.

Galfond: {9-Diamonds}{7-Spades}
Shorr: {a-Spades}{10-Spades}

Shorr could double into the chip lead with either an ace, ten, or spade on the turn or river, but the {3-Diamonds} and the {k-Hearts} bricked off. He is eliminated in seventh place, earning $129,342.

The remaining six players will now take a short break as the television crew prepares for the live stream.

Hand #41: Phil Galfond raised to 70,000 in the cutoff, Steve Sung three-bet to 225,000 out of the small blind, and Max Lehmanski moved all in from the big blind. Galfond and Sung both folded.

Hand #42: Galfond raised to 70,000 in the hijack seat, Dani Stern defended his big blind, and the flop came {j-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}{5-Spades}. Stern check-called a bet of 75,000, and the turn was the {6-Diamonds}. Stern checked, Galfond fired out another 155,000, and Stern check-raised to 475,000.

Galfond went deep into the tank, and the five other players stood around the table, waiting to goto break while he thought. Finally, he tossed his hand into the muck, and Stern picked up the pot.
