Greg Mueller Eliminated in 3rd Place ($3,750,000)

Hand #151: Greg Mueller moved all-in on the button with K♦7♣ and got his bet through to take the blinds.

Hand #152: In the second hand of three-handed play, Lauri Saaskilahti limped in the small blind and Mueller checked in the big blind.

The flop was 4♣A♦A♣ and both players checked. The J♥ turn saw Saaskilahti bet 3,000,000 and Mueller called.

After the 3♦ river, Saaskilahti asked for all of Mueller's chips and the Canadian obliged.

Greg Mueller: 10♣4♥ All in
Lauri Saaskilahti: K♠K♦

Saaskilahti had successfully trapped Mueller to send him out of the Main Event in 3rd place with a $3,750,000 payday.
