Laszlo Bujtas Eliminated in 5th Place ($565,000)
Level 19
: Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante
Laszlo Bujtas opened the cutoff to 1,050,000 and Samuli Sipila three-bet the button to pot. Bujtas then shoved 5,700,000, and Samuli called,
Laszlo Bujtas: K♠K♦4♦3♣
Samuli Sipila: Q♦Q♣10♠9♣
Bujtas was ahead, but needed to hold otherwise he would be the next to fall. A flop of J♦9♠10♥ was great for Sipila as he made two pair and picked up a straight draw, and he improved to a set on the Q♠ turn, which left Bujtas drawing dead.
A meaningless J♣ on the river boated up Sipila, and Bujtas was out in fifth.
