Kevin Greene moved all in from the button for about 1.2 million, and Eric Laneve called all in from the small blind for about 975,000 with AdKd.

Greene turned over Ah10c, and Laneve needed his ace-king to hold to stay alive.

The board came 9d8s3s4c10d, and Greene paired his ten on the river to win the pot and eliminate Laneve in 31st place.

Laneve said, “What are you doing shoving ace-ten on the button?”

Greene replied, “I’ve got ace-ten on the button. What am I supposed to do?”

Kevin Greene  –  2,200,000  (37 bb)
Eric Laneve  –  Eliminated in 31st Place  ($5,560)

Greene is the player who was down to less than two big blinds before the first break today, but he has made a hell of a comeback and he’s still in contention for the top prize of $291,665.
