Cody Wells moved all in under the gun for 165,000, Joseph Crowley moved all in over the top from the hijack for 540,000, and Kyle Lazzaro tanked for a while before calling from the cutoff, leaving himself about 330K behind.

The player on the button tanked for a very long time before he folded, and the blinds quickly folded after that.

These were their cards in descending order of chip counts:

Kyle Lazzaro:  10h10c
Joseph Crowley:  AhJd
Cody Wells:  Qd9c

The board came 9s8s8cQs4h, and Wells paired his nine on the flop and his queen on the turn to win the main pot worth 570K and triple up two pair, queens and nines. Lazzaro won the side pot worth 750K with his pocket tens to eliminate Crowley in 87th place.

Cody Wells  –  570,000  (19 bb)
Kyle Lazzaro  –  1,080,000  (36 bb)
Joseph Crowley  –  Eliminated in 87th Place  ($2,775)

With 86 players remaining from a field of 3,989, the average chip stack is around 930,000 (31 big blinds). The remaining players are guaranteed at least $2,775 each.
