Eric Kotsines Eliminated in 5th Place ($18,890)
Level 35
: Blinds 600,000/1,200,000, 1,200,000 ante
Eric Kotsines raised to 7,600,000 in the cutoff and MG called in the big blind. MG went to turn over his cards, but Kotsines still had 1,600,000 behind as they went to a flop of Q♦9♠4♦. MG then moved all in, and Kotsines called for his last chips.
Eric Kotsines: A♥Q♠
MG: A♦J♣
Kotsines had flopped top pair to take a big lead in the pot, while the K♦ turn gave MG straight and flush draws. The 10♥ river improved MG to a straight, and Kotsines was sent to the rail in fifth place.
