Hand #176: Daniel Perper Out in 3rd Place ($409,500)

Daniel Perper (left) moves all in from the button for 1,170,000, and David Sands (right) moves all in over the top from the small blind. Joseph Cheong folds the big blind.

Perper shows [Kh7s], and he’ll need to improve to stay alive against the [5c5h] of Sands.

The board comes [8h5d4dJs8s], and David Sands wins the pot with a full house, fives full of eights, to eliminate Daniel Perper in third place.

Seat 1.  Joseph Cheong  –  1,530,000
Seat 5.  Daniel Perper  –  Out in 3rd Place  ($409,500)
Seat 6.  David Sands  –  4,765,000

There will be a short-break before heads-up play begins between David Sands and Joseph Cheong.
