Benjamin LeBlond Eliminated in 5th Place (A$55,900)
Level 24
: Blinds 20,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
The action got to Benjamin LeBlond in the small blind, who ripped in his stack of 840,000. Weiran Pu was in the big blind and after getting a count, he called.
Benjamin LeBlond: A♠10♣
Weiran Pu: A♥6♥
LeBlond held the lead and his hand was still good after the 8♥J♣J♠ flop. However, things changed when the 6♦ on the turn paired Pu, leaving LeBlond with one chance to survive. Instead, Pu boated up as the 6♠ river earned him the pot, and sent LeBlond out in 5th.
