James ‘Bagels’ Lillis Eliminated in 5th Place ($4,225)

Blinds: 70,000/140,000

Catching up with the action on the turn of a board reading {k-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}, chip leader Yong "IReadYrSoul" Kwon bet out 1,050,023. James ‘Bagels’ Lillis called, and the {4-Diamonds} completed the board. With about 3.7 million already in the middle, Kwon bet enough, 2.2 million and change, to put Lillis all in. He would call with {q-Spades}{10-Hearts}, but it was no good, as Kwon showed {k-Diamonds}{2-Spades} for a winning two pair.

This leaves just four players, with Kwon still holding a big lead.
