Baker: {a-}{8-} / {7-}{2-}{6-}{4-} / {x-}
Rechnitzer: {6-}{5-} / {2-}{4-}{a-}{9-} / {x-}All in on fifth street

Gerard Rechnitzer completed and David "ODB" Baker called. On fourth street, Rechnitzer bet and Baker called. On fifth street, Rechnitzer bet, leaving himself 2,000 behind. Baker raised and Rechnitzer was all in.

Rechnitzer held a pretty commanding lead with an already-made six low, meaning Baker would have to go perfect-perfect to eliminate his opponent.

Rechnitzer drew a {9-} and Baker a {4-}, meaning Baker would have to draw a {3-} to complete a better six low.

Baker turned over the {3-}, making a better six than his opponent, with Rechnitzer's {j-} irrelevant.

Rechnitzer takes home $14,645 for his seventh-place finish.

On sixth, Baker paired again, hitting another ace and Hellmuth hit a ten. Hellmuth bet again and Baker called. Hellmuth checked on seventh and Baker's eyes lit up with a chance to win the pot. He checked his cards then bet.

"I'm not folding," said Hellmuth who slowly turned over a four, showing he had at least one pair, and then he called.

Baker revealed {7-}{5-}{3-} for a seven low and Hellmuth mucked in disbelief.

Phil Hellmuth: {6-}{2-} / {4-}{10-}{a-}{j-} / {j-}

Glaser: {x-}{x-} / {2-}{7-}{k-}{8-} / {x-}
Freedman: {x-}{x-} / {a-}{j-}{10-}{8-} / {x-}

Benny Glaser completed and Wendy Freedman called.

Glaser bet on fourth street, and Freedman called. Freedman bet on fifth street, and Glaser called. Freedman check-called on sixth street and then bet on seventh street. Glaser called.

Freedman showed {7-}{5-}{2-} for an eight-seven low, and Glaser looked shell-shocked, revealing {10-}{5-}{3-} for an eight-seven low, albeit a worse one.

With just 2,000 chips left, Glaser got it in against Freedman in the next hand with the boards running out as follows:

Freedman: {6-}{3-} / {7-}{6-}{5-}{3-} / {9-}
Glaser: {j-}{7-} / {10-}{2-}{9-}{7-} / {j-}

Glaser made a jack-low, but Freedman had made a nine-low and eliminated Glaser in fifth place for $27,503.
