Ben Heath

Ben Heath was in the small blind when he looked down at {k-Spades}{k-Diamonds}, he elected to complete and Paul Phua raised to 925,000 from the big blind with {a-Spades}{k-Clubs}. Heath three-bet to 2,500,000 and Phua moved all in. Heath snap-called for his remaining 6,900,000 and the players turned over their hands.

Ben Heath: {k-Spades}{k-Diamonds}
Paul Phua: {a-Spades}{k-Clubs}

A monster flop landed for Phua when the dealer spread {q-Spades}{j-Hearts}{10-Hearts} out on the board, giving Phua a straight. The {6-Diamonds} peeled off on the turn and Heath was drawing to just a chop. A {j-Diamonds} completed the board and Phua scooped in the pot with his broadway, eliminating Heath from the tournament in third place for a respectable £1,350,000.

Sam Greenwood moved all in for 1,675,000 from the small blind with {10-Spades}{8-Diamonds} and Wai Kin Yong called in the big blind with his {j-Hearts}{3-Spades}.

Sam Greenwood: {10-Spades}{8-Diamonds}
Wai King Yong: {j-Hearts}{3-Spades}

The flop came down {a-Hearts}{a-Clubs}{3-Hearts}, not helping Greenwood. A {k-Diamonds} peeled off on the turn and Greenwood needed to hit on the river or his tournament was finished.

A {7-Diamonds} missed Greenwood and Yong took down the pot with his two pair, eliminating the Canadian from the tournament in fifth.
