Mohsin Charania Eliminated in 20th Place ($56,000)

The second player eliminated on the day was 2012 PokerStars and Monte-Carlo® Casino EPT Grand Final champion Mohsin Charania, and with his bustout, we'll have to wait until Deauville to see if the first two-time EPT champion will be crowned.

Charania moved all in from under the gun for 115,000, and action folded to Michael Lipman on the button. He called, then play moved over to Jerry Wong in the big blind. Wong reraised and made it 300,000 to go. Lipman also called the reraise before the dealer ran out the {10-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} flop.

On the flop, Wong fired 200,000. Lipman raised all in, and Wong called off for around 900,000 total. He held the {A-Spades}{10-Hearts} for top pair, top kicker. Lipman held the {Q-Clubs}{J-Spades}, and Charania had {2-}{2-}.

The turn was the {6-Spades} and river the {8-Clubs}. Wong's hand held up to give him the double up through Lipman and knockout of Charania.

Anthony Borde Eliminated in 18th Place; Olivier Busquet Eliminated in 19th Place ($56,000)

Anthony Borde -- 18th Place
Anthony Borde -- 18th Place

The next two eliminations on Day 5 belonged to Anthony Borde and Olivier Busquet. Both were eliminated on the same hand against Ryan Fair, and here's how it went down.

Busquet raised to 50,000 from under the gun before Fair reraised to 132,000 from the next seat. Action then folded to Borde in the cutoff seat, and he moved all in for approximately 750,000. After action folded back to Busquet, he called all in for around 510,000. Fair then called and put both players at risk.

Busquet was the shortest stack of the three and held the {A-Hearts}{K-Diamonds}. Borde was also at risk, and he held the {Q-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}. Fair had both of them crushed with both chips and hand, holding the {A-Spades}{A-Clubs}.

The {J-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{7-Spades}{5-Hearts}{2-Diamonds} board provided no help, and Fair sent both Busquet and Borde out the door. Both earned $56,000 while Fair increased to 3.7 million in chips.

Loeser Doubles Through Crowe

Mikal Blomlie raised to 51,000 from the cutoff seat, and Manig Loeser reraised all in for 436,000 from the button. Owen Crowe called out of the big blind, and Blomlie folded.

Crowe tabled the {A-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts} for a flip against the at-risk Loeser's {10-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}.

The board ran through {7-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}{K-Diamonds}{6-Spades}, and Loeser's tens held up. He doubled through to a little under one million, while Crowe was left with 2.25 million.

Eddy Sabat Eliminated in 17th Place ($56,000)

Eddy Sabat and Jonathan Roy
Eddy Sabat and Jonathan Roy

Eddy Sabat opened to 48,000 from the cutoff and it folded around to Darren Elias in the small blind. Elias three-bet to 132,000 and action came back to Sabat.

"I'll go all in," said Sabat.

Elias snapped him off and tabled {J-Spades}{J-Clubs} which was racing with Sabat's {A-Spades}{K-Clubs}.

The flop brought no help for Sabat as it fell {3-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}. The {2-Hearts} rolled off on fourth street meaning Sabat needed an ace or a king on the river to stay alive. The river was the {9-Clubs} and he was forced to settle with a 17th place finish. Sabat has made the top 40 in this event three years in a row and this 17th place is his best finish here. He'll collect $56,000 for his winnings.

One For Elias

Level 24 : 12,000/24,000, 3,000 ante

Owen Crowe raised to 56,000 from the hijack and his only caller was Darren Elias from the big blind. The flop brought {3-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{8-Clubs} and Elias checked. Crowe continued for an unknown amount and Elias called.

Fourth street was the {J-Spades} and Elias checked a second time. Crowe moved 130,000 into the middle and once again Elias flat called. The {3-Spades} hit the river and Elias check-called a bet of more than 200,000. Crowe showed {9-Diamonds}{9-Clubs} but was ultimately behind Elias' {A-Clubs}{J-Hearts}. Jacks and treys were the best hand and Elias was able to drag in the last pot before break. Elias is now sitting on 1,804,000. Crowe, on the other hand, has fallen to 2,310,000.
