Kou Vang Eliminated in 5th Place ($22,650)
Level 25
: 25,000/50,000, 5,000 ante
Kou Vang made this third straight Mid-States Poker Tour final table, but for the third straight time, he walked away without the title.
Dan Colpoys opened for 125,000 in the cutoff, and Kris Wagner three-bet to 310,000 on the button. Kou Vang woke up with an all-in four-bet to 660,000 from the small blind, and both Colpoys and Wagner called.
The two active players checked down the 
board.
"Two jacks," Colpoys said, showing 
. Wagner mucked his cards, and Vang raised up the 
and tossed them into the middle face up.
