On a flop of 7d6d4c, Nick Petrangelo checked from the small blind and David Malka bet 235,000 from the big blind. Sylvain Loosli called on the button and Petrangelo went into the tank for a minute.

Petrangelo eventually moved all in for about 2,000,000 and Malka hesitates for a few moments before moving all in for about 3,500,000. Loosli quickly folded and the cards were tabled.

Malka showed 8h5c, good for the nut straight and had Petrangelo drawing to runners with his 8s8d. The turn was the 7h, giving Petrangelo some outs, but the river was the 9s and Petrangelo hit the rail in fourth place.

Petrangelo took home $206,800 for his finish and Malka takes a massive chip lead into three-handed play.

David Malka – 5,750,000 (95 bb)
Nick Petrangelo – Eliminated
