Daniel Neilson Eliminated in 3rd Place ($900,000)
Level 37
: Blinds 500,000/1,000,000, 100,000 ante
Daniel Neilson opened to 3.3 million on the button with a fraction of that behind and Michael Sklenicka came along in the blinds with Stanislav Zegal.
Sklenicka led out for 4.2 million on the flop of 10?9?J? and Neilson called off for his last 600,000. Zegal folded and the cards were turned up.
Daniel Neilson: 7?4?
Michael Sklenicka: 10?9?
Neilson had run into two pair and needed to hit an eight to make a straight and stay alive.
He couldn't do it as the board ran out Q?5? to mark his elimination in third place for $900,000.
