Leo Boxell Eliminated in 3rd Place ($213,840)

Leo Boxell - 3rd Place
Leo Boxell - 3rd Place
Aaron Benton raised to 450,000 with the button and Leo Boxell called out of the big blind. The flop came down {10-Hearts} {8-Spades} {7-Diamonds} and Boxell shoved all in for 1.86 million. Benton made the call.

Benton held top pair and an open-ender with {10-Diamonds} {9-Diamonds}. Boxell held {8-Hearts} {6-Spades} and would need a lot of help if he was going to stay alive.

The turn card was the {3-Clubs}, leaving Boxell looking for his gutshot to hit. It wouldn't be in the cards for Boxell when the {10-Spades} hit the felt, sending him to the rail in 3rd place.

Boxell earned over AUD $200,000 for his third-place finish.
