Thomas Ross Eliminated in 5th Place ($189,574)

Level 30 : 40,000/80,000, 10,000 ante
Thomas Ross - 5th Place
Thomas Ross - 5th Place

Allen Bari entered the pot from the cutoff with a raise to 160,000 only to have Thomas Ross move all in for 710,000 from the button. Bari paused for a few moments before making the call.

Bari: {A-Spades}{8-Spades}
Ross: {A-Hearts}{10-Clubs}

The {J-Clubs}{7-Spades}{6-Hearts} flop gave Bari some backdoor outs along with his eight as the {2-Spades} landed on the turn. Now needing to fade a spade or eight, the river would be a cruel {J-Spades} to see Ross hit the rail in 5th place for a $189,574 payday as Bari soars to 9,800,000 in chips.
