Scott McMorran is a little unfortunate to have found himself in a raising war at the wrong moment and has been eliminated in 7th place, with Ruben Perceval the beneficiary of the hand.
Joel Miller got things started with a raise to 90k. Scott responded with a 3bet raise to 275K – only to find Ruben 4bet raise behind him to 675K. Action returned to Joel who simply folded, and Scott decided to push. Ruben made the call.

The flop offered no solace to Scott: and then the on the turn and river removed all hope. Ruben added well over 1.3M to his stack in the hand and is almost certainly a big chip leader in the tournament.
Scott’s elimination means there are just 6 players left – the official WPT Final Table! We’ll post more information about what to expect including full chip counts a little later this evening.
7th place: Scott James McMorran, $42,860.00
