David Vamplew Eliminated in 2nd Place ($413,157); Brett Shaffer Wins!

Level 23 : 100,000/200,000, 30,000 ante
David Vamplew - 2nd place
David Vamplew - 2nd place

Hand #201: David Vamplew opened to 400,000 from the button and Brett Shaffer moved all in for just over 8.3 million. Vamplew instantly called for his remaining 3,935,000 in chips and the cards were tabled.

Vamplew: {Q-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}
Shaffer: {A-Spades}{9-Hearts}

With Vamplew in the lead and looking to double through to a two-to-one advantage, the {A-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}{9-Clubs} flop gave Shaffer the commanding lead with top two pair.

As Vamplew's rail that was full of British and other European players stood to their feet, they repeatedly called for the {Q-Spades} before the dealer delivered the {7-Diamonds} on the turn.

"Queen of f**king spades one time!" screamed one of Vamplew's rail birds, but as the dealer dropped the {10-Spades} on the river, Vamplew would have to settle for his second 2nd place for the series which sees him earn $413,157 for his efforts.
