Frankie Flowers lost a large chunk of his stack to Jeff Battaglia but managed to regain all of it and then some by eliminating Nuri Kural and Johnny Smith.
Flowers shoved for a few hands in a row and then on the fourth occurrence (this time in the cutoff), picked up a caller picked up a caller in Kural on the button, who had a few hundred thousand less than Flowers.
Kural needed help for his remaining 950,000 with A♠5♠ against the J♣J♠ of Flowers. The 6♣6♥6♦10♥K♥ board busted Kural and he earns $12,744.
The perpetually short-stacked Smith rolled 960,000 in the middle with A♣7♦ in the small blind and was met by the 10♣10♦ of Flowers in the big blind.
Flowers flopped a set and turned a full house leaving Smith drawing dead to the river. Smith takes home $16,993. Chip counts for the final four are below.
- Frankie Flowers – 4,350,000
- Darryll Fish – 1,775,000
- Jeff Battaglia – 5,650,000
- Kyle Caslin – 790,000
