Jeffrey Chang moved all in from the cutoff for about 450,000 and Dermot Blain called from the big the big blind.

It was a flip for Chang’s tournament with his AdKh up against Blain’s 9h9s.

The flop was 9c8h7h and Chang stands up from his seat after Blain flopped top set.

Chang was drawing dead to a chop, but found some hope of a split pot with the 5c coming on the turn. The river was the 3h and Chang hit the rail in fifth place.

Blain dragged the pot and Chang took home $61,600 for his final table run.

Dermot Blain – 2,600,000 (52 bb)
Jeffrey Chang – Eliminated
