Level 43 : Blinds 2,000,000/4,000,000, 4,000,000 ante
Michael Monroig
Michael Monroig

Michael Monroig was forced to make folds in a series of pots preflop and was low in chips before he went all-in on the button for 22,500,000. He was called by Joseph Liberta to be at risk for his tournament life and the championship.

Michael Monroig: 108All in
Joseph Liberta: 85

Monroig had Liberta's hand dominated, but that amounted to nothing when the flop came 525 to give Liberta trips fives and a near lock on the hand.

The Q turn was all she wrote for Monroig as the 2 completed the board to eliminate him in second place.

Monroig earned $1,000,000 for his finish.
