With Bradley Phee’s elimination, the Colossus was down to 8 players, and play halted for some pictures of the final 8 – the official final table. Phee went all-in in an unopened pot with 2.95M chips, and he found himself isolated by Laurence Louis.
Phee: 
Louie: 
Board: 
Phee was still good on the flop, but he knew he had the world to dodge before the end of the run out. The river brought the spade that spelled the end of his adventure. He takes $10,000 for his 9th place finish. Congratulations!
The official Final Table:
Minutes after play resumed, it was Sofiane Boulila’s turn to be expelled. He got it in in good shape against Miguel Cholette, preflop, but that flop was downright brutal to him.
Boulila: 
Cholette: 
Board: 
Drawing dead on the flop, Boulila was resigned to leave in 8th place, for $12,500. Excellent run!
The table didn’t have time to take a breath before the next all-in confrontation. And again, what a brutal board!
Morgan Aceto:
Matthew Van Allen: 
Ouch! After flopping a set, a unbelievable run out sent Van Allen to the Rail. He takes $16,000 for his efforts. As for Noy U, he also left. We missed the action, but reports informed us that he faced aces, holding the ace-nine. He takes $21,000 for his 6th place finish.
Play is now 5-handed, and the dust slowly settles from this monster brawl that started the day.
