Hand #104 - Dustin Holmes Eliminated in 4th Place ($141,516)

Hand #104 - Dustin Holmes has the button in seat 4, he raises to 115,000, and Pillai calls from the big blind. The flop comes {Q-Diamonds}{4-Spades}{3-Clubs}, and both players check. The turn card is the {5-Clubs}, Pillai checks, Holmes bets 150,000, Pillai raises to 320,000, Holmes moves all in, and Pillai immediately calls with {A-Spades}{2-Diamonds} for a five-high straight. Holmes shows {A-Diamonds}{4-Hearts} -- he needs a deuce on the river to chop the pot with identical straights.

The river card is the {J-Hearts}, and Pillai wins the pot with a wheel straight.

Dustin Holmes is eliminated in fourth place, earning $141,516. The next player eliminated will receive $212,274 for third place.
