Max Vandever Eliminated in 8th Place ($8,400)
Hand #40
Blinds 75k/150k/150k
Maxwell Vandever opened UTG+1 to 300k with T♥T♦ and the action folded all the way around to chip leader Richard Philip who looked down at A♦A♠ in the SB. Philip then put in the 3-bet to 900k and Vandever responded by moving all in, which Philip quickly called and showed his opponent the bad news.
Vandever did pick up some outs on the J♣5♠8♣7♦ turn, but the 6♥ completed the board to eliminate him in 8th place while Philip scooped a massive pot.
Vandever - 0
Philip - 15m
