Mathew Frankland Eliminated in 6th Place ($152,300)
Level 34
: Blinds 250,000/500,000, 500,000 ante
Mathew Frankland opened the action with a raise to 1,900,000 from the cutoff. It folded to Viktor Ustimov on the button who three-bet all in for his stack of 3,600,000, and once it folded back to Frankland, he made the call for his last 900,000.
Mathew Frankland: A♦8♥ 
Viktor Ustimov: A♥A♣
Frankland ran into Ustimov's pocket aces, and the 9♥6♠3♥ flop provided no help. However, the 7♥ on the turn gave Frankland an open-ended straight draw, though it couldn't be a heart, as Ustimov had also picked up the nut flush draw. The river brought the 10♥, completing Frankland's straight, but Ustimov won the pot and eliminated Frankland with his ace-high flush.
