With just 8,000,000 in chips and the loudest rail in the room, Anthony Potis went all in for his tournament life. The action folded to Renji Mao in the big blind who made the call for just a few million more.

The cards hit their back.

Anthony Potis: 68
Renji Mao: A7

The there was a 7 in the window but the full board ran out 78J52 giving Potis the full double and his rail went crazy.

The very next hand Qiwen Chen jammed under the gun having Potis slightly covered. He made the call and again we see a full board with the cards on their back.

Anthony Potis: 66
Qiwen Chen: A10

The runout came J8K23 and once again his rail went wild as he scored the double and sky rocketed into a top three stack on the final table.

Anthony Potis Eliminated in 3rd Place ($186,250)

Level 42 : Blinds 1,300,000/2,500,000, 2,500,000 ante
Anthony Potis
Anthony Potis

The action was on Matthew Elsby on the button who went all in having Anthony Potis covered in the small blind. Potis took one look at his cards and announced "I would like to be all in". Renji Mao folded in the big blind and the players were off to a runout.

The hands were tabled.

Anthony Potis: AA
Matthew Elsby: K9

Elsby couldn't have asked for much more on a 6K2 flop that also had Potis and his rail calling for "red cards".

The Q turn looked clean but the 4 river gave Elsby the flush and sent Potis to the rail in third place.

In a pot with roughly 25,000,000 in the middle on a completed board showing 963103, Matthew Elsby checked his option to Renji Mao on the button who fired out a bet of 20,000,000 and Elsby went deep in the tank.

After close to a minute of thought, Elsby announced call and Mao tabled Q7 for a rivered flush to score the pot when Elsby tossed his cards into the muck.
