Matt Stout

The play has been tight two off the money, but something was bound to give and it just did.

It happened when Jeff Fielder opened for 17,000 from middle position and Matt Stout three-bet all in for 109,000 from the button. Both blinds folded and Fielder gave it some thought before making the call.

Stout: 9c9d
Fielder: JdJh

Stout was in big trouble and failed to get lucky as the board ran out a dry 3d6s8s4s10d.

The field is now down to 116 players meaning just one more will leave empty-handed before the top 115 are in the money.

Jeff Fielder – 500,000 (63 bb)
Matt Stout – Eliminated
