Level 30 : 40,000/80,000, 10,000 ante
Matt Salsberg - 3rd Place
Matt Salsberg - 3rd Place

Hand #127: Pierre Milan raised to 200,000 from the small blind and Justin Oliver defended the big to see a flop of {9-Hearts}{k-Hearts}{10-Hearts}. Milan continued for 245,000 and Oliver folded.

Hand #128: Pierre Milan raised to 160,000 from the button and Matt Salsberg moved all in for 795,000 from the button. Milan folded.

Hand #129: Justin Oliver raised to 200,000 from the button and Matt Salsberg moved all in for 1.015 million from the small blind. Pierre Milan called from the big blind, and Oliver got out of the way.

Milan: {a-Hearts}{k-Spades}
Salsberg: {k-Clubs}{j-Spades}

Milan had woken up with a monster in the big blind, and Salsberg was in a bad spot. The {5-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{8-Spades} flop did little to give Salsberg hope, and neither did the {9-Diamonds} turn. The {9-Spades} would be the final nail in Salsberg coffin, and he earned $207,842 for his third-place finish.
