Phil Collins doubles up on Lamb, moves in the fourth
On the 73rd hand, American Phil Collins faced elimination against fellow American Ben Lamb.
Collins raised all in for 13.575 million and Lamb called from the big blind.
Collins had queen of hearts and jack of diamonds while Lamb had the ace of clubs and queen of clubs.
The flop was king of diamonds, 5 of diamonds and 3 of spades, keeping Lamb in the lead. On the turn, the 10 of diamonds gave Collins several potential outs.
His rooting section erupted when the turn card produced the queen of diamonds, giving him a flush and he took in a pot worth more than 28 million in chips. The win moved Collins into fourth place with six players left in the competition.
By the 78th hand, Pius Heinz of Germany held the lead with 54.9 million in chips, followed Matt Giannetti of the US with 50 million. Martin Staszko of the Czech Republic was third with 45.95 million.
