Yong Foo: A♦3♠
Marc Foggin: 10♣10♦

Foggin was in good shape for the double up with a pair of tens, but the J♦9♦8♦ flop gave Foo the nut flush draw, as well as an up and down straight flush draw for Foggin.

The K♥ rolled off on the turn to give Foggin hope of the double up, but the 4♦ river gave Foo the ace-high flush and sent Foggin to the rail.

Scott Boyle Eliminated in 10th Place (£7,000)

Niveau 31 : Blinds 250,000/500,000, 500,000 ante

Anthony Brown opened from the button to 1,000,000 and Scott Boyle three-bet jammed to 11,250,000 from the big blind. Brown made the quick call to put Boyle at risk.

Scott Boyle: A♥10♣
Anthony Brown: A♣A♠

Boyle had been extremely unfortunate to run into Brown's aces, and the 9♣5♣3♥Q♠10♥ runout provided no salvation as he exited in 10th place.

The players have now been sent on a 45-minute dinner break while preparations are made for the final table. Details of the final table redraw will follow shortly.
