Houman Sahafi Eliminated in 3rd Place ($66,600)
Level 34
: 250,000/500,000, 500,000 ante
Danesh Zargaran raised to 1,750,000 in the small blind, Houman Sahafi moved all in for 14,000,000 in the big blind, and Zargaran snap-called.
Houman Sahafi: A?Q? 
Danesh Zargaran: K?K?
Zargaran had woken up with kings and left Sahafi needed to hit an ace to stay alive. The flop came 9?7?6?, while Zargaran made top set on the K? turn as Sahafi was already drawing dead by the river. The inconsequential 2? completed the board and Sahafi was sent to the rail in third place.
Zargaran and Candido Cappiello are taking a short break before beginning their heads-up match.
