Carl Masters Eliminated in 5th Place ($9,850)
Level 23
: 20,000/40,000, 20,000 ante
Hand #78
Carl Masters opened to 150,000 from the cutoff with A♦K♣3♦3♣ and then Vladyslav Shovlovyi three-bet to 525,000 from the small blind with A♣9♥8♣7♠. Masters then responded by moving all in for 1,175,000 and Shovkovyi made the call to put him at risk.
Masters was ahead with his pair, but unfortunately for him, the flop of 6♦6♠7♥ gave Shovkovyi a better pair of sevens and the runout of 4♠5♣ further improved him to a straight to eliminate Masters in 5th place.
