Tamas Lendvai:
Marcus was behind, but had outs with his over cards. The flop and turn gave him a straight draw, but the was a brick, and Lendvai's pocket fives were still best. Lendvai scooped the pot, not before celebrating, and Marcus headed to the payout desk after shaking his competitors' hands, where he'll take home a payday of $78,793, the biggest live cash of his career.
Lendvai, who started the day as the shortstack with less than eight big blinds, has dominated the final table thus far, soaring into a commanding chip lead.
