Sergio Fernandez Eliminated in 5th Place ($340,000)
Level 24
: Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante
Matthias Eibinger moved all in from the button and Sergio Fernandez called for 3,475,000 in the small blind.
Sergio Fernandez: A♠J♣
Matthias Eibinger: A♦Q♠
Fernandez was dominated and at risk, but he hit top pair on the J♦8♥7♣ flop to take the lead. The turn was the 7♥ and Eibinger was left with just three outs to avoid handing over most of his stack, and he spiked one of them on the Q♦ river to send Fernandez to the rail in fifth place.
