Ramil Tandoc - 5th Place

The short stack at the table has been Ramil Tandoc. 89,000 chips seems like a healthy amount, until one realizes that the blinds are 6,000 and 12,000. As the last Filipino player in the tournament, Tandoc has been carrying his country's flag and pride, hoping to bring the tournament trophy home with a victory. He open-shoved all in and was called by Tae Jun Noh.

Tandoc: {K-Hearts}

{K-Hearts}

{2-Hearts}

Noh:

{A-Clubs}

{J-Clubs}

The flop was perfect to give everyone a good sweat -- {3-Diamonds}

{3-Diamonds}

{2-Clubs}

{7-Clubs}

. Tandoc paired his deuce, but Noh had two overcards and a flush draw. The sweat quickly ended when the {4-Clubs}

{4-Clubs}

hit the turn to make an unassailable flush for Noh. Tandoc was shown the door after the {5-Diamonds}

{5-Diamonds}

completed the board. He finished in 5th place, winning $29,314.
