Dean Bui Eliminated in 6th Place ($132,088)

Dean Bui - 6th Place
Dean Bui - 6th Place
Hand #48 -

Anthony Signore has the button in Seat 9. Dean Bui completes the small blind, Luis Velador makes it an additional 55,000 and Bui calls. The flop is {K-Hearts} {10-Diamonds} {7-Clubs}. Bui checks, Velador bets 90,000, and Bui tanks for several minutes before calling. The turn is the {4-Hearts} and both players check. The river is the {9-Hearts}. Bui bets 255,000 Velador moves all in and Bui calls.

Velador shows {K-?} {K-?} for a set of kings, while Bui showed {10-?} {10-?} for a lower set. Bui will leave us in 6th place on a brutal cooler, earning $132,088 for his finish.

Dany Georges Eliminated in 7th Place ($100,638)

Dany Georges - 6th Place
Dany Georges - 6th Place
Hand #47 - Dean Bui

Osmin Dardon has the button in Seat 8. Dany Georges moves all in for 488,000 from middle position. Dean Bui calls from the big blind and the players show:

Bui: {6-Diamonds} {6-Hearts}
Georges: {A-Hearts} {J-Hearts}

The flop comes {K-Hearts} {10-Clubs} {3-Clubs}. Georges could now win with a {Q-?} in addition to his overcards. The turn brings the {7-Spades}, no help to either player. With the gallery here on their feet, the river comes the {3-Spades}. Bui's sixes are best.

There is some confusion as to whether or not Bui had Georges covered, but after a count, it was determined he indeed did.

Dany Georges was eliminated in 7th place and takes home $100,638 to show for it.
