Nicholas Verderamo raised to 135,000 on the button and Ben Gazzola three-bet to 340,000 in the small blind. Verderamo called.

The flop came 7♠5♠3♣ and Gazzola continued with a bet of 130,000. Verderamo then raised to 1,075,000, leaving himself with 60,000 behind. Gazzola moved all in, putting Verderamo at risk, who made the call.

Ben Gazzola: A♠2♠

The A♦ landed on the turn, leaving Verderamo drawing dead. The meaningless 5♦ peeled off on the river, and Verderamo's impressive tournament run came to an end.

Level 27 : 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

Ben Gazzola raised to 160,000 on the button and Xiaoqiong Liu three-bet all in for 970,000. It folded back to Gazzola who confirmed the count and called to put Liu at risk.

Xiaoqiong Liu: J♠J♥ All in
Ben Gazzola: 4♥4♦

Liu was great shape to get a double up with her pocket jacks, but after the flop came out 4♠7♠3♣ Gazzola jumped in front with his set of fours. Liu was unable to improve after the A♦ turn and 9♥ river, and the set of fours of Gazzola were still best, to eliminate Liu in third place for $53,832.

Player	Chips	Progress
Ben Gazzola	6,250,000 1,150,000	1,150,000
Parker Talbot	3,545,000 -155,000	-155,000
