Action folded to James Rann on the button and he opened to 85,000. Marty Mathis moved all in from the small blind for 585,000 and Phil Hui followed suit in the big, shoving for 1,645,000. James Rann had both covered and called to create a huge three-way pot.

Rann: JcJd
Mathis: 8d8h
Hui: AhQc

Rann was ahead, Mathis was dominated, Hui had two overs to storm back into the game and the board ran out Ks7c5h6dJd. Mathis turned an open-ender but Rann made an unnecessary set on the river to send two players out.

Tournament staff paused the clock and they are redrawing seats at the last two tables.

James Rann – 4,880,000 (122 bb)
Phil Hui – Eliminated in 17th place ($21,305)
Marty Mathis – Eliminated in 18th place ($21,305)
