Mashir Khan Eliminated in 3rd Place ($98,308)
Mashir Khan
From the button Chad Smith opens to 190,000. Mashir Khan calls from the big blind.
The flop is and Khan leads out with a bet of 250,000. Smith then raises, making it 600,000. Khan thinks for a second, then announces that he's all in. Smith leans back in his chair, sighs, and starts to think. After about a minute he calls the shove for about 3 million chips, putting Khan at risk, having him covered by just a bit.

Khan:
Smith has the best hand with his over pair, but Khan can catch a seven, eight, or five to take the lead away. The turn is the which changes nothing, and the river is the which doesn't change anything either. That means that Smith will take down the pot and for his 3rd place finish, Khan will take home $98,308.
Chad Smith - 8,100,000 (101 bb)
Mashir Khan - Eliminated
