Patrik Demus Eliminated in 5th Place ($170,000)
Level 28
: Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante
James Mendoza opened to 600,000 from under the gun and Patrik Demus three-bet to 2,500,000 in the cutoff. Action folded back to Mendoza, who shoved, and Demus called all in for 5,700,000 total.
Patrik Demus: 8♣8♠
James Mendoza: J♦J♥
It was bad timing from Demus, who would need some help against Mendoza's jacks.
It wasn't meant to be, however, as the Q♦6♥9♦J♠Q♠ runout needlessly improved Mendoza to a full house to eliminate Demus in fifth place.
