David Nathaniel Jr. raised to 300 from the cutoff, Stephen Song (pictured) three-bet to 800 from the button, Jose Reyes called in the small blind and Mohamed Serry called in the big blind. Nathaniel Jr. four-bet to 3,000, Song called, Reyes folded and Serry called.

The flop was 8c4c8s and Serry checked to Nathaniel Jr. who continued for 3,500. Song called before Serry check-raised to 12,000. Nathaniel Jr reraised all in for roughly 15,000, Song called with a covering stack and Serry called all in for less.

Cutoff: KsKh
Song: AsAc
Big Blind: Ah8h

Serry was in the lead with trip eights, needing to fade a king or the case ace to hold up.

The 5s turn changed nothing, but the Ad river fell to give Song the one outer he needed, giving him aces full of eights to score the double elimination.

Stephen Song – 83,000 (830 bb)
Mohamed Serry – Eliminated
David Nathaniel Jr. – Eliminated
