We've got fireworks right away! There is a dead button for this hand, the first hand back from break. To begin with, Joe Cada comes in raising to 2.55 million from the small blind. Saout then announces a three-bet to 7.3 million from the big, and action came right back to Cada. After a minute or two, he announces, "All in," and Saout instantly makes the call with his towering stack! With Cada now at risk for his tournament life, the cards were turned up: Cada: 2c.gif2s.gif Saout: qh.gifqs.gif With a long pause building the suspense, the crowd again comes to life as the two halves of the room yell back and forth at each other. Alternating cries of "Deuce!" and "Queen!" bombarded the stage as the dealer burned a card and ran the flop: 7s.gif2d.gif9s.gif Ecstatic celebration comes from Camp Cada as their man finds his deuce to take a big lead in the hand. The turn and river come 3h.gif and 6s.gif respectively, and Saout can not re-improve to tally the knockout. Instead of being forced to watch the other two men bag up for the night, Cada is now the chip leader with 78,600,000, all courtesy of that two-out deuce, the most important card of Cada's young career.

Joe Cada has the button. He opens to 2.5 million. The new short stack, Antoine Saout folds the small blind. Darvin Moon calls from the big blind to a flop of {10-Diamonds} {k-Diamonds} {7-Clubs} and checks. Cada makes a continuation bet of 3.75 million. Moon quickly announces a raise and shoves 10.0 million in the middle. Joe Cada raises all in, and why not? He's running hotter than even Darvin Moon.Moon usually calls quickly if he's going to call, and here he takes his time. That's a sign that he's going to fold, and sure enough he folds after about thirty seconds.Cada's now the far-and-away chip leader at 91.9 million. Moon slips to 63.1 million.

Antoine Saout Eliminated in 3rd Place ($3,479,670) Hand #276 - Joe Cada has the button. He opens the pot to 2.5 million before Antoine Saout moves all in behind him. Darvin Moon folds his big blind, and Cada makes the call with his covering stack. Saout is now the one at risk of elimination, and he will soon find out that he's flipping a coin for a couple million dollars: Cada: da.gifks.gif Saout: 8s.gif8h.gif "Ace in the window! Ace in the window!" plead Cada's posse. Saout's fans are murmuring in French, clearly a bit nervous for their countryman. The crowd is punchy and tired and well-lubricated with alcohol, and the noise is awfully loud considering the relatively small crowd. As the tension mounts, the dealer runs out the flop: 5h.gif4s.gif5c.gif. That's safe for the at-risk Saout, two cards from his double up. The turn is safe too; the 10d.gif changes nothing. The river, though, changes quite a bit indeed. Like a bolt of thunder, the kc.gif strikes the board and Cada is mobbed by a throng of yellow-shirted fans. Saout's side of the room falls absolutely quiet as their man can only shake his head and shake the hands of the two left standing. With Antoint Saout exiting in 3rd place, the final heads-up pairing is set for Monday. Saout officially earns $3,479,670 for his remarkable efforts here in the Main Event, but his bid for poker glory has fallen two places short.
