Jesse Sylvia had the button, and opened to 1.2 million. Jake Balsiger three-bet to 3.5 million from the small blind, Greg Merson folded, and Sylvia tanked before four-betting to 7.2 million. Balsiger moved all in for 28.3 million, and Sylvia immediately called.
Sylvia: 
Balsiger: 
"Jack! Jack! Jack!" Balsiger's rail chanted.
There was no jack on the flop, but the 
flop missed Sylvia. The former chip leader did have a backdoor heart draw, however.
The 
turned, and the crowd "ohhhhhhh'ed." It too did not give Sylvia a set, however, and he was down to three cards to knock out Balsiger.
The 
completed the board, and Balsiger's rail went wild. The 21-year old successfully doubled, and now has just under 60 million chips.
