Ben Palmer

Three-handed play revolved around Ben Palmer’s stack winding down until he was forced to shove to stay alive.

Palmer went in for 1,885,000 in the small blind with 7♣6♣ and Peter Morris looked him up with K♠8♠.

The K♣K♦8♥ flop gave both players a laugh as Morris flopped Palmer dead. The 8♦ turn was insurance and Morris took Palmer’s bounty.

Palmer earns $15,660 for the bronze medal. Heads up play between Morris and Shawn Nelson starts momentarily.
