John Marino Eliminated in 7th Place ($28,501)
Level 36
: Blinds 300,000/600,000, 600,000 ante
John Marino entered Day 3 as one of the shorter stacks of the remaining players. He decided midway through Level 36 to put it in play out of the small blind following a raise from Shawn Smith, who was on the button.
Shortly after peeking at his cards, Marino announced an all-in bet, which Smith immediately called to put Marino at risk of elimination.
John Marino: 7?7? 
Shawn Smith: 10?10?
Marino was behind and the situation didn't chance when the dealer fanned 8?6?2? on the flop. The dealer then placed 3? on the turn, followed by the 10? on the river to send Marino to the rail.
The $28,501 payout becomes Marino��s second-best tournament cash.
