Spiro Mitrokostas held only 35,000 at one point when the big blind was 50,000
Just before the color up, we saw a slew of action at this 4 handed final table.
In the first confrontation, Joseph Smith and Spiro Mitrokostas got all of their chips in with a massive coin flip. Joseph held the [Qc][Jc] against Spiro's [8s][8c]. Joseph made a straight on the river when the board ran out [Tc][6s][Kh][7s][9d].
Left with not even one big blind, Spiro put the rest of his chips in on the next hand and rivered a flush to quadruple up. He then called all in on the next hand, and found two pair with his [Td][7s] against the [Ah][5c] of Mike Zagorites.
Phuong Nguyen had stayed quiet through all of this with his short stack, but he finally came alive when he pushed all in with [Ah][Qh] and was called by Mike, holding the [Kd][Jd]. Mike had Phuong on the ropes when the flop fell [2s][2c][Jh], but Phuong hit runner runner flush when the board ran out [9h][Kh].
The remaining four players are doing everything in their power to keep the tournament staff in place for at least the first bit of the Super Bowl.
