Casey Yontz opened for 125,000 under the gun and was met with a three-bet to 305,000 from Russell Thomas in the cutoff. The button and blinds got out of the way, Yontz moved all in for 1.83 million, and Thomas made a quick call.

Yontz was in bad shape, though he did hold an overcard. The 
flop gave Yontz some additional straight outs to a king, but neither the 
turn nor 
river would be of any consequence. With that, Yontz exited in 53rd place while Thomas chipped up to over 6.3 million.
