Level 29
: 25,000/50,000, 5,000 ante
John Andress opened with the button and Brian Ali three-bet to 400,000. Andress called.
The flop fell 
and Ali checked to Andress who slid out 260,000. Ali moved all in for effectively 2 million and, after a beat, Andress called.
Showdown
Andress: 
Ali: 
There were 4.74 million chips in the middle, and if Ali could spike an ace, running fours or running straight cards he would win the tournament.
The dealer rapped the table and delivered the 
on the turn - no help to Ali.
"Ace!" someone shouted from the rail.
The river was not an ace, rather it was the 
and Andress shipped a monster double to take a small chip lead.
Andress - 4.77 million
Ali - 4 million
