Lou Esposito Eliminated in 6th Place ($59,833)

Lou Esposito (left)-- 6th Place
Lou Esposito (left)-- 6th Place
Hand #27 -

Timothy Miles has the button in Seat 4. Nick Ceci raises to 36,000, Lou Esposito moves all in for his remaining 14,000, Timothy Miles re-raises to 120,000, and Ceci moves all in for 568,000.

"Holy sh*t! Why do you want to play for it all, man?" says Miles, as he ponders the situation.

"I've got a read on you," is Ceci's coy reply.

"Damn, son! You could have just called. You're really putting me to the test," says Miles as he continues to tank.

Miles makes the call... and it's another three-way all in! Miles has both of his opponents covered.

Miles {Q-Spades}{Q-Hearts}

Ceci {A-Hearts}{A-Clubs}

Esposito {10-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}

Miles laments his call, "Oh, why can't I fold that?!" The flop is {A-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{5-Hearts}, making Ceci top set. The turn is the {9-Clubs}, opening the door for Esposito, but the river is the {5-Diamonds}, and Esposito is eliminated in 6th place, while Ceci takes over the chip lead. Miles is still healthy, though with 638,000.
