Dan Delatorre Eliminated in 6th Place ($76,118)

[user108095]

Dan Delatorre moved all in for 585,000 from under the gun and Michael Morusty took nearly a minute before making the call.

When no one else joined in, Morusty said, "OK, show me the bad news," as he tabled {K-Spades}

. As it turns out, he was ahead of Delatorre's {Q-Spades}

and held on to take the hand as the board came {8-Diamonds}

.

Morusty, who was down to 1,000 chips at one point yesterday, now has a stack of 1,725,000 while Delatorre is heading home with a prize worth $76,118.

When Scott Buller raised to 150,000, he got called by Dan Delatorre on the button and Charles Simon in the big blind.

Simon then led for 400,000 on a flop of {8-Diamonds}

, opening the door for Buller to raise to 1 million. That was enough to push everyone else out of the pot.

Sebok on the Rail

[user108095]

It's not just the PokerRoad t-shirt that got Joe Sebok to come rail Michael Davis at the final table. Davis' daughter, Rachel, is here too and she's a former PokerRoad employee.

Sebok says he's pleased to see someone he knows doing well, but he's afraid his presence is making Davis nervous at the final table.
