Marvin Rettenmaier Eliminated in 7th Place ($78,681)

Hand #37:

Austin McCormick has the button in Seat 5.

Marvin Rettenmaier moves all in from the hijack seat for 455,000. The table folds to the big blind, and Simon Watt quickly makes the call to put his opponent at risk.

Showdown
Rettenmaier: {6-Clubs} {7-Clubs}
Watt: {A-Diamonds} {10-Spades}

The flop is tasty treats for both players as it comes down {7-Hearts} {8-Hearts} {9-Diamonds} to pull Rettenmaier into the lead. He's not out of the woods yet though, as Watt is now working open-ended for the knockout.

The turn is a safe {3-Diamonds}, and the tensions rise as Rettenmaier stands behind his chair.

River: {J-Spades}!

That's a straight for Watt, and he rallies to knock off Rettenmaier in 7th place. He'll pocket $78,681 for his work over the past three days, but his bid for his first bracelet falls just a few places short.

Watt is now up to about 2.5 million.
