Level 29
: 25,000/50,000, 5,000 ante
From the button, Todd Wood raised to 110,000, and Josh Evans three-bet to 265,000 next door. Wood responded by reraising right back to 715,000, and he was pretty much priced in when Evans shoved for 1.22 million all in. Evans was at risk as the cards were tabled, and he was well ahead.
Showdown
Wood: 
Evans: 
Wood got some small help as the 
flop opened up two more outs to the win. The turn 
was a blank, though, and so was the 
river. That sends the biggest pot of the tournament into Evans corner, leapfrogging him from short stack to chip leader with 2.53 million now.
After dropping that double up, Wood is all the way down to just 820,000.
