Blinds: 100,000/200,000(200,000) - 3/665 players remain

Donald Pritt limped the button before Marshall White folded the small blind, and Valentin Lita checked his option.

The [ah][td][7d] flop landed, and the action checked to Pritt, who bet 500,000. Lita quickly check-raised to 2,000,000 before Pritt moved all-in. Lita quickly called and saw he was in amazing shape to get the knockout.

Pritt was at risk with [kd][5d] for a flush draw, and Lita tabled [ad][2d] for top pair and a better flush draw.

The [2s] turn sealed the deal, and the [th] river didn't change a thing. Pritt hit the rail in 3rd place to send the tournament into heads-up play with Lita holding a massive chip lead.
