Hand #84 - (No-Limit) Steve Billirakis has the button in seat 7, and there is no small blind this hand. Everyone folds to George in the big blind, giving him a walk.

Hand #85 - (No-Limit) There is a dead button, and all three players limp for 40,000. The flop comes {7-Spades}{6-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}, and all three players check. The turn card is the {8-Hearts}, and they check again. The river card is the {9-Clubs}, George bets 100,000, and the other two players fold. Tony George takes the pot.

Hand #86 - (No-Limit) Tony George has the button in seat 9. Mueller limps from the small blind for 40,000, Billirakis checks his option, and George folds. The flop comes {K-Clubs}{J-Clubs}{5-Clubs}, and both players check. The turn card is the {K-Hearts}, and they check again. The river card is the {K-Diamonds}. Mueller bets 45,000, and Billirakis folds. Mueller takes the pot.

Hand #87 - (No-Limit) Greg 'FBT' Mueller has the button in seat 5. He raises to 110,000, winning the blinds.

Hand #93 - (No-Limit) Greg 'FBT' Mueller has the button in seat 5. He raises to 120,000, George moves all in, and Mueller immediately calls with {A-Hearts}{K-Spades}. George shows {5-Clubs}{5-Spades}, and it's a race situation. George is facing elimination if his pocket pair doesn't hold up.

The flop comes {J-Hearts}{10-Spades}{8-Clubs}, and Mueller picks up a straight draw to go with his overcards. The turn card is the {6-Clubs}, and and George has to avoid ten cards to double up.

The river card is the {Q-Diamonds}, and Mueller rivers a Broadway straight. He runs over to his friends in the bleachers who mob him with high fives. He quickly walks over to Tony George to shake his hand, but his friends start chanting "FBT! FBT! FBT!"

Tony George is eliminated in 3rd place, earning $218,329.

Short Break

There will be a short break as ESPN interviews third-place finisher Tony George. They also need to prepare the final table for heads-up play.

Jeff Madsen, the youngest player to ever win a WSOP bracelet, is in the crowd rooting for Greg 'FBT' Mueller. While they're friends, Madsen has another vested interest in tonight's event -- if Steve Billirakis wins, he would steal the record from Madsen. (Billirakis is 21 years and 10 days old.)

Official chip counts for heads-up play coming soon.
