Mark Hodge Eliminated in 4th Place ($25,539); Terry Ring Eliminated in 5th Place ($20,091)
Level 27
: 25,000/50,000, 5,000 ante
Ervin Bjerga raised to 125,000 under the gun and got a call from Terry Ring on his left. Mark Hodge moved in from the big blind for 425,000 total.
"Call," Bjerga said after getting a count, though he didn't seem thrilled.
Ring quickly called off for less, about 400,000.
Hodge: 
Ring: 
Bjerga: 
It was a dream scenario for Bjerga.
"Oh no, what are we doing?" Hodge said.
"Chopping I hope," Ring said with a laugh.
No such thing occurred as the board ran out 
, and Bjerga now has about half of the chips in play.
For Hodge, the elimination ends his tournament, but he has now built a remarkable streak of three straight Mid-States Poker Tour final tables dating to the end of last season.
