Paul Runge Eliminated in 3rd Place ($178,250)
Level 35
: Blinds 250,000/500,000, 500,000 ante
Paul Runge raised to 1,300,000 from the small blind and Yucel Eminoglu defended his big blind.
The flop came J♣5♦7♦. Runge shoved and Eminoglu jumped up from his seat. He glanced over to Runge's stack who counted it out for him and confirmed he had around 6,000,000 behind. Eminoglu considered it for a while, counting out calling chips.
"You got the flush draw, I call!" Eminoglu said before making the call.
"Straight draw," Runge replied but then he saw Eminoglu's cards. "Oh no, you're ahead."
Paul Runge: 8♥6♥ 
Yucel Eminoglu: 8♣7♣
Runge had the open-ended straight draw but Eminoglu had flopped middle pair.
The rest of the board was completed with the 3♦ on the turn and the 10♠ on the river for Runge to finish in third place.
