Dana Kellstrom Eliminated in 6th Place ($50,455)

Level 23 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante
Dana Kellstrom - 6th place
Dana Kellstrom - 6th place

In mid position, Dana Kellstrom opened with a raise to 25,000 (or possibly 30,000), and Ali Eslami was the lone caller.

The two men took a {2-Diamonds} {4-Diamonds} {4-Clubs} flop, and Kellstrom continued out with 40,000. Eslami took pause for a good long while, eventually calling Kellstrom's continuation.

That led them to the action card, the turn {3-Clubs}. After a long pause of his own, Kellstrom pushed out another bet of 60,000, Eslami moved all in, and Kellstrom called off his final ~120,000. The news was not good for the at-risk player.

Showdown
Kellstrom: {A-Spades} {5-Clubs}
Eslami: {5-Diamonds} {6-Diamonds}

Both players had turned their straights, but Kellstrom's wheel was inferior, He was dead to a chop, looking for a six.

River: {K-Hearts}

That's not going to do it for Kellstrom, and that's the way his final hand transpired. With his straight coolered off, Dana Kellstrom will pocket more than $50,000 for his sixth-place showing here this week.

Eslami has moved up further, sitting with about 1.25 million chips now.
