Level 5 : 250/500, 75 ante

Sergio Di Pego raised to 1,300 from early position and Jeff Cormier three-bet to 3,200 from the hijack. Di Pego called.

The flop came {9-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{3-Clubs} and Di Pego checked. Cormier bet 3,600 and Di Pego quickly called.

The turn was the {5-Diamonds}, prompting Di Pego to check again. Cormier was moving full speed ahead and bet again. This time, he made it 6,200 to go.

The river was the {a-Hearts}. Di Pego checked for a third time, and Cormier decided to slow down and check back.

Di Pego tabled {k-Spades}{k-Hearts} for two pair, kings and threes. Cormier showed {a-Clubs}{8-Spades} for aces up and scooped the pot. Di Pego just shook his head and sent his cards into the muck.

David Lopez Llacer Eliminated

Level 5 : 250/500, 75 ante

David Lopez Llacer was already extremely short and a bad beat finished it all off. He shoved for his last 4,475 and got looked up by small blind Felix Bleiker. Llacer turned over {A-Hearts}{K-Hearts} while Bleiker had to do with {K-Diamonds}{J-Spades}. The board, however, would run out {J-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{2-Spades} and Llacer hit the rail.

Damian Salas Eliminated

Level 5 : 250/500, 75 ante

Damian Salas was seen getting up from his seat after he got his short stack of about 5,500 in the middle against Mike McDonald on the river.

The board was ten-high, and when Salas checked to McDonald, he moved a tall stack of T5,000 chips in the middle, putting him to the test for his tournament life. Salas snap-called, but when McDonald tabled {10-}{6-} for a pair of tens with a six kicker, he mucked his cards and left the tournament area.
