Hand #105

Hand #105 - Jason Song has the button in seat 5, he raises to 120,000, and Shak calls from the big blind. The flop comes {10-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{3-Hearts}, and both players check. The turn card is the {A-Hearts}, and they check again. The river card is the {Q-Diamonds}, Shak bets 175,000, and Song calls. Shak shows {K-Hearts}{J-Clubs} for the nuts -- the ace-high straight. Song mucks, and Shak takes the pot.

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.
