WPT DeepStacks champion Scott Baumstein raises from the cutoff to 250,000, and Marc Foggin reraises from the big blind to 925,000, leaving himself a single 25K chip behind. (Yes, the field is one spot away from a pay jump.) Baumstein calls.

The flop comes Club AClub KSpade 6, and Foggin uses his last Time Chip to tank for nearly a minute before he checks. Baumstein moves all in, and Foggin thinks for a while before he calls all in for 25,000 with Heart 8Diamond 8.

But Baumstein turns over Diamond ASpade J for a pair of aces, and Foggin needs to improve to stay alive.

The turn card is the Club 5, the river card is the Club 9, and since neither player has a club, Baumstein wins the pot with his pair of aces to eliminate Foggin in 13th place.

Scott Baumstein  –  7,075,000  (57 bb)
Marc Foggin  –  Eliminated in 13th Place  ($163,280)
