Chris Audrain raised from the cutoff and was called by Mark Lafata from the small blind, along with Joe DeRousse from the big blind.

Once the flop hit the felt, Lafata moved all-in for 1,925,000 and was snap-called by DeRousse, sending Audrain deep into the tank.

After some careful thought, Audrain said, “I think I’m ahead, but I’m going to fold”, and tossed into the muck.

Audrain’s gut feeling was correct, but it was now DeRousse who held the best hand as the turn followed by the river sent Lafata home in fourth place for $57,074.

Joe DeRousse - 8,050,000
