In the fourth hand of the day, Matthew Gonzales raised to 150,000 under the gun, leaving himself with just 5,000 behind. The action folded to Nick Petrangelo in the small blind who contemplated his action for a bit before eventually folding.

Big blind Ben Heath put in a bunch of chips to get Gonzales to commit his last 5,000-chip as well. Gonzales joked by tossing in a time bank card first but grabbed it back and quickly called right after.

Matthew Gonzales: {j-Spades}{4-Spades}
Ben Heath: {j-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}

The flop came {q-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{3-Clubs}, pairing up Gonzales.

"Oh baby doll!" Gonzales said to the dealer.

While the flop was good for him, the {9-Hearts} on the turn left him drawing to just a few outs. The {2-Diamonds} completed the board and Gonzales said his goodbyes.

Gonzales out in twelfth place, good for $101,604. The next to go out gets that very same amount.

Despite winning the hand, Heath is still slightly down for the day after losing a small pot to Nick Petrangelo in the third hand of play.
