Jason Mo shoved his last 275,000 or so all in from middle position and action folded to Scott Seiver, who called from the big blind.

Seiver woke up with the granddaddy of all hands, and Mo needed some luck to stay alive. The flop was as dry as could be, and the turn left Mo drawing to a ten. The river was not it, and Mo took his leave in ninth place.
With that, the final table is set. The final eight players will now take an hour break and relocate to the Exhibition Hall to play it out at the TV table.
