Andrew Flaherty raises from early position to 40,000 and Brandon Zallar three-bets to 80,000 on Flaherty's left. The action folds back to Ted Forshey (pictured) in the big blind who thinks for half a minute before announcing all-in for around 560,000. Flaherty reshoves for less and the action is back on Zallar, who has a stack of 1.3M.
Zallar emerges from a minute-long tank to announce a call, and the hands are revealed.
Forshey - A♣K♠
Flaherty - A♠A♥
Zallar - Q♥Q♦
The board runs out K♥9♣8♥2♦2♣, tripling up Flaherty and giving Forshey a small rebate.
Andrew Flaherty - 1,542,000
Ted Forshey - 90,000
Brandon Zallar - 820,000
Forshey was eliminated on the next hand and exits the tournament in 17th place for $2,249.
