Level 24 : 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Mykel Comroe opened to 100,000 from the cutoff and was three-bet all in for around 440,000 by Michael Sanders, who was in the small blind. Action made its way back to Comroe and he confirmed the amount before announcing a call.

Michael Sanders:
Mykel Comroe:

Sanders was in need of help to stay alive, but it would be Comroe to improve as the flop came to give him the nut flush. Sanders stood up, remarking to Tiffany Keathley on the rail about not having much of a sweat as the turn fell, giving him one out at a chop. It did not come, however, as the river came to confirm his departure from the tournament and take the number remaining down to four.
