With the board showing AsKs6c10c on the turn and a big pot already built up in the middle, James Romero bet 150,000, and Brandon Eisen moved all in.

Romero quickly called with QcJs for an ace-high straight, and Eisen turned over Ad10d for two pair. Eisen would need an ace or a ten on the river to stay alive.

The river card was the Kc, and Romero won the biggest pot of the tournament with his straight to eliminate Eisen in fourth place and take a big chip lead.

James Romero  –  1,400,000  (47 bb)
Brandon Eisen  –  Eliminated in 4th Place  ($8,148)

The remaining three players are guaranteed at least $11,543 each.
