: Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Jefferson Morrill opened for 30,000 in middle position and got a three-bet all-in for 150,000 from Robert Topham, putting Morrill's tournament life in jeopardy.
Jefferson Morrill: A♣10♠
Robert Topham: K♥Q♥
Morrill was ahead and was looking at a potential double-up on the board of 7♥6♣5♦8♥. Topham's chances increased on the turn as it gave him a flush draw, but the river gave him K♠, which was good enough to eliminate Morrill from the tournament.
