Espen Moen moved all-in from middle position for 325,000. Daivd Peters called from the button.

Peters moved into the lead on the flop of 210J and Tollefsen got out of seat and got ready to leave. The 10 on the turn, gave Peters trips and left Tollefsen drawing dead.
The 7 on the river was meaningless and Tollefsen left the tournament area, while Peters is up to 5,500,000.

Big Hands:

The action folded to David Peters who raised in the hijack to 66,000. Henrik Tollefsen called in the cutoff and then Paul Kerr moved all-in from the button for 880,000.
Dustin Dorrance-Bownman was in the big blind and went into the tank for quite a while as he was covered by just a few chips by Kerr.
Finally Dorrance-Bownman made the call and tabled 1010 and was up against Kerr’s AQ.
The flop came A54 and Dorrance-Bowman was in a world of hurt.
The turn was the 8 and the river was the 9 and Dorrance-Bowman was the first casualty of today’s final table, while Kerr chipped up to 1,900,000.
After four grueling days of poker, the final nine players that are remaining in event no. 54 will be returning to the Rio later today at 3 p.m. to see who our next bracelet winner will be.
David Peters is the chip leader going into the final day with 2,630,000 in chips. Peters picked up pocket aces to bust Johnny Kitchens to set up the final nine and propel him to the chip lead. Marcel Vonk was chip leader at the dinner break on day 3 and isn’t too far behind Peters with 2,253,000 in chips.
