Two hands ended the game for Mike Beasley. On a flop of {3-Hearts}

, Mike Beasley led out for 1,000,000. Vanessa Selbst moved all in, putting Beasley to a decision for the rest of his chips -- about another 1.2 million. Beasley tanked two minutes.

While Beasley was tanking, Selbst turned to Neil Johnson and said, "We're heads-up in the tournament so now I can talk, yeah?" She was referring to an incident that happened yesterday right before dinner break.

Beasley eventually folded. The next hand, he moved all in but Selbst passed. The hand after that, they got it in pre-flop. Selbst tabled {A-Hearts}

to Beasley's {Q-Hearts}

.

The flop came down {3-Diamonds}

, improving neither player. Selbst's ace was still in the lead. Beasley asked for a turn card that would at least give a decent sweat -- something like a jack. He didn't get it with the {7-Clubs}

turn.

"Queen of diamonds," said David Fox from the rail. It would have to be a queen or a ten for Beasley to stave off elimination, but the river came {8-Clubs}

to pair Selbst and send Beasley to the rail.
