Scott Margereson shoved from the button for 8,500,000 and Mateusz Moolhuizen snap-called from the big blind with the bigger stack,
Scott Margereson: 3♥3♦
Mateusz Moolhuizen: 9♠9♦
Moolhuizen shouted over to his rail to let them know what the cards were before as pocket nines are his favorite hand. "I love money, and money loves me," he said with a smile as a reference to a meme in the Netherlands.
The flop came 7♣Q♥4♠ to keep Moolhuizen ahead.
The turn was the 6♣ to give Margereson some extra outs as he could hit a straight to stay alive but the river completed the board with the 7♥ to eliminate him in sixth place.

Scott Margereson is by far the winningest player on the final table. Known as "Aggro Santos" in the virtual realm, the 30-year-old has racked up more than $5.2 million in PokerStars online tournaments.
Margereson's accolades include two WCOOP titles, both from 2014, for more than $300,000 combined. He is also a Sunday Million champion (for $194,479) and a SCOOP winner.
The Englishman's live event pedigree is also stellar, with his cashes totaling more than $3.1 million. While Margereson's top three results all came on US soil, he needs little introduction to the PokerStars TV audience.
Two years ago, he reached the last table in the biggest ever EPT Main Event, finishing 8th from 2,294 entries in Barcelona.
