Hand #104: Matthew Vessier Eliminated in 3rd Place ($127,549)

Matthew Vessier bumps it up to 300,000 on the button, and John Gale moves all in from the big blind, easily having Vessier covered. Vessier makes the call, and sees he is well behind.

Gale:   
Vessier:   

The flop comes    , and Vessier picks up some more outs. The   on the turn means that Vessier can only win with a deuce now, but it doesn't come, as the   completes the board. Vessier will have to settle for $127,549, and we are now heads up.

Gale holds a massive advantage right now, with 8.06 million to the 905,000 of Luther. The players are taking a short break while the stage is set up for the heads up battle.
