Dale Phillips is short-stacked and all in preflop from the hijack in a multiway pot, and when the board shows Kd9d8dJh on the turn, Emil Soffer (big blind) bets to become the last opponent in the pot.

Emil Soffer:  KhJd7d6s  (jack-high flush)
Dale Phillips:  QhQd10c2h  (king-high straight)

With no possible lows, Phillips is drawing dead with a straight against a flush, and the meaningless river card is the Ks. Soffer wins the pot with his diamond flush to eliminate Phillips in seventh place.

Emil Soffer  –  760,000  (19 bb)
Dale Phillips  –  Eliminated in 7th Place  ($1,320)

With six players remaining from a field of 102, the average chip stack is about 425,000 (11 Big Bets). The remaining players are guaranteed at least $1,550 each.
