Neel Mazumdar limped from the small blind with A♠2♣ and Derek Normand checked the big blind with 5♠4♥ to see a flop of 4♠10♠3♣. 

Mazumdar led for 25,000 with his draw and Normand called with his bottom pair. 

The turn 5♣ was disastrous for Normand as he improved to two pair but Mazumdar hit his straight for a huge lead. 

Mazumdar led for 100,000 and Normand responded by moving all in, only to be snapped off by Mazumdar and shown the bad news. 

Normand would need a four or five only to stay alive, but the 9♥ on the river spelled the end for him as he was eliminated in 8th place. 

Mazumdar - 1,350,000
Normand - 0
