Nathan Fair Eliminated in 3rd Place ($44,644)
Nathan Fair pumped it up to 350,000 in the small blind and was three-bet to 1.175 million by Derek Mcmaster in the big blind. Fair made the call and the flop came 
.
"All in," said Fair, shoving for his last 2 million or so.
"Call," responded Mcmaster immediately.
Nathan Fair: 
Derek Mcmaster: 
Fair's found his pair of sevens had run into two cowboys and the turn 
put a pair on the board to give Mcmaster kings up, leaving Fair with only two sevens left in the deck to stay alive. Instead, his eight paired on the river 
to leave his hand second best.
The dealer announced kings and nines were the winning hand to confirm the matter, resulting in a response from Mcmaster: "Oh shit! I thought I had lost!"
Instead, it was Fair to hit the rail in third place, taking home a payday of $44,644.
