Emerson Ward raised from the button to 50,000, Matt Glantz moved all in from the big blind for about 315,000, and Ward called with Ac3h.

Glantz turned over 9s9d, and needed it to hold to stay alive.

The board came Ad7h2dAhQs, and Ward paired his ace on the flop and turned trips to win the pot and eliminate Glantz in ninth place.
