Henrik Tollefsen Eliminated in 5th Place ($138,107)

Henrik Tollefsen - 5th place
Henrik Tollefsen - 5th place

We're moving along quickly here today. Just now David Peters opened with a raise to 110,000 from the button, then Henrik Tollefsen pushed out a reraise to 270,000 from the small blind. Paul Kerr folded his big blind, and the action was back on Peters.

Peters sat for about a half-minute without moving, then said he was reraising all in. Tollefsen went into the tank, and finally after a couple of minutes quietly said "I call."

Tollefsen {A-Spades}{Q-Hearts}
Peters {K-Hearts}{10-Spades}

Tollefsen was ahead for the moment, but after the {2-Spades}{10-Hearts}{J-Hearts} flop he was behind and already getting out of his chair. The turn couldn't have been much worse for the Norwegian -- the {10-Diamonds}, giving Peters trips. That took away Tollefsen's gutshot straight draw and meant the {7-Clubs} was no matter.

Tollefsen is out, while Peters takes the lead now with 5.5 million.
