Hand #11 - Minireri

Filtz, who has raised six of the first eleven hands, steps out the way and folds, only for Minieri to take hold of the reins and make it 51,000 to play. Everyone else folds and Minieri wins the pot.

Hand #12 - Fischer

O'Shea makes it 50,000 from the cutoff. Fischer, however, reraises to 150,000 from the button. The blinds get out of their way, and it's back around to O'Shea, who passes.

Hand #13 - Minieri

After a short delay, Kevin Song folds the button, Justin Filtz makes up the small blind and Dario Minieri checks the big

{3-Hearts}{2-Clubs}{5-Clubs}

Filtz check-calls 16,000.

Turn = {4-Clubs}

Both players check.

River = {10-Diamonds}

Check, check again.

Justin shows 7-2, Dario has J-5 for the pot.

Hand #15 - Minieri

Justin Filtz makes it 50,000 to play from the cutoff.

Dario announces a reraise from the button and makes it a total of 175,000.

Filtz folds, "with the speech," as the announcer puts it.

Hand #16 - Fischer

Filtz makes it 40,000 utg, and small blind Fischer makes it 150,000. Kevin Song quickly folds his big blind, and Filtz dwells up for a while, before he folds too.

Hand #17 - Filtz

Kevin Song makes the call from the small blind and Justin Filtz checks his option.

{9-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}

Both players swiftly check.

Turn = {Q-Diamonds}

Song checks, Filtz bets 20,000 and Song calls.

River = {7-Diamonds}

Song checks, as does Filtz, the latter taking it down with T-2. Song mucks.

Hand #18 - Fischer

Fischer raises to 55,000, and Minieri is the only caller.

Flop: {2-Diamonds} {10-Clubs} {10-Hearts}

Minieri checks, and Fischer fires out 75,000. Minieri calls.

Turn: {5-Diamonds}

Again, Minieri checks. This time Fischer considers his move for some time, before betting 150,000. Minieri mulls it over expressionlessly, before folding, Fischer raking in the sizable pot.

Hand #19 - John O'Shea Eliminated in Fifth ($98,923)

John O'Shea
John O'Shea
Seth Fischer bumps it up to 55,000 from early position and Song calls, John O'Shea calls from the big blind.

{5-Spades}{A-Hearts}{2-Spades}

O'Shea checks, but Fischer is less accommodating, continue betting for 110,000.

Although Song swiftly sidesteps out of the way, O'Shea pauses momentarily before pushing all in!

Fischer calls without hesitation.

O'Shea = {2-Diamonds}{4-Spades}
Fischer = {A-Spades}{9-Spades}

Turn = {A-Clubs}

River = {Q-Diamonds}

As Fischer scoops the pot, O'Shea exits to a nice round of applause and joins his fellow countrymen in the audience.
