Steve Quillian Eliminated in 5th Place ($8,100)
Blinds: 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Glen Thompson raised to 200,000 under the gun before Mike Chafetz three-bet to 450,000 in the cutoff. Steve Quillian called for 295,000 on the button, and Thompson reshoved for 1,430,000. Chafetz gave the decision some thought, but he eventually folded A♣Q♠.
Steve Quillian: 9♥9♣
Glen Thompson: J♥J♦
Quillian spiked a set on the 10♣9♦3♥ flop to take the lead, while the turn was the Q♣. The river, though, was the K♣ and Thompson made a straight to win the pot and bust Quillian in fifth place.
