Jeff Lisandro Eliminated in 5th Place ($34,752)

Ryan Gray

Level 30

Jeff Lisandro: 9x6x/4x10x7x4x/Qx
David "ODB" Baker: Ax2x/8x5x3xJx/2x

Facing the same dwindling stack the other two recent knockouts had faced, Lisandro raised Baker's complete, and Baker, who had been smelling the blood leaking from Lisandro's stack for several hands, decided to strike. Lisandro's paired fours on sixth had him drawing dead to Baker's 85, and his quest for his seventh bracelet, and second in razz came to an end.
