Sterling Savill Eliminated in 4th Place ($82,104)
Sterling Savill raised to 325,000 in the cutoff and was met with a three-bet to 1,155,000 on the button by Mike Linster. William Kopp folded in the small blind and Michael Rodrigues then cold-called from the big blind.
With just under 1,500,000 total, Savill debated briefly and then made the call, leaving himself just 300,000 behind.
On the 10♠Q♠Q♣ flop, Rodrigues led out for pot, 5,375,000, which sent Linster to bolt out of his seat. Savill called off his last 300,000, and a visibly frustrated Linster folded his A♥K♦10♦2♥ face up, leaving Savill's fate to Rodrigues.
Sterling Savill: A♣9♠5♣3♠
Michael Rodrigues: A♠10♥4♥2♠
Savill was drawing very thin, and after the 6♠ on the turn gave Rodrigues his nut flush, the 7♦ on the river was meaningless, sending Savill to the rail in third place.
