Returning from the break and it was Matt Wakeman who was the short stack. He has now been eliminated at the hands of Jordan Westmorland. Wakeman's last hand of the tournament started when the action was folded to him in the cutoff. He shoved all in for a touch over 130,000 and Westmorland called directly on his left. The blinds got out of the way and Westmorland tabled 
.
"I need to get lucky," Wakeman said as he flipped over 
. "I can make wheels though, i've got a wheel draw!"
By the time the board ran out to the turn, the 
on the felt certainly did give Wakeman a straight draw, but the 
on the river sealed the nail in his tournament coffin as he was eliminated in sixth place.
