Stanley Wang moved all in from the button for 705,000, and Marco Townsend called all in from the big blind for 375,000 with Qc9s. Wang turned over AcJd, and Townsend needed to improve to stay alive.

The board came 7d7s3sQsQd, and Townsend won the pot with a full house, queens full of sevens, to double up in chips.

Marco Townsend  –  810,000  (20 bb)
Stanley Wang  –  330,000  (8 bb)

A short while later, Wang moved all in from the button for 230,000, and Townsend called from the big blind with Ac7d. Wang turned over As6c, and he needed to improve to stay alive.

The board came 7h6s4dKsKd — both players paired their kickers on the flop, but Townsend won the pot with a higher two pair, kings and sevens, to eliminate Wang in fourth place.

Marco Townsend  –  1,120,000  (28 bb)
Stanley Wang  –  Eliminated in 4th Place  ($19,670)

The final three players are all guaranteed at least $27,605 each.
