Cards are back in the air. Here's how our final four stack up at present:

Ivan Demidov 50,200,000
Peter Eastgate 46,100,000
Dennis Phillips 20,050,000
Ylon Schwartz 19,875,000

Hand #150 - Dennis Phillips

Peter Eastgate has the button in Seat 9. He limps in from the button after Ivan Demidov folds. Dennis Phillips completes the small blind and Ylon Schwartz declines his option from the big blind. For what it's worth, that's the second time Eastgate has limped his button.

All three players check the flop of {6-Clubs} {7-Clubs} {K-Diamonds}. Phillips is the first one to fire at the {Q-Hearts} with a bet of 1.75 million. That's enough to take it down.

Hand #149 - Ivan Demidov

Ivan Demidov has the button in Seat 7. He opens for 1,525,000 and Dennis Phillips reraises to 3.6 million from the small blind. Demidov answers the reraise with a four-bet all in and the pressure is back on Phillips, who is faced with a decision for his tournament life. Phillips decides to fold and Demidov wins a sizeable pot.

Hand #148 - Ylon Schwartz

Ylon Schwartz has the button in Seat 3. Dennis Phillips raises to 1.5 million as first to act. Schwartz calls in position. It's just the two of them to a flop of {8-Hearts} {8-Clubs} {3-Clubs}. Phillips checks it over to Schwartz, who bets 2.25 million. Phillips doesn't think long before folding his hand.

With that pot, Schwartz chips up to 19.875 million and Phillips slips to 22.45 million.
