Hasan Habib - 5th Place

Nothing went right for Hasan Habib after dinner. He was second in chips when dinner started, with a touch more than 1 million. Now he's out in fifth place, a victim of a tough string of unkind boards.

On his final hand, Habib completed the {J-Hearts}

{J-Hearts}

after Ville Wahlbeck brought it in and Eric Drache limped the {10-Diamonds}

{10-Diamonds}

. Only Drache called. In fact, Drache called all the way to sixth street, where he raised {10-Spades}

{10-Spades}

{6-Clubs}

/

{10-Diamonds}

{8-Clubs}

{J-Spades}

{6-Hearts}

to put Habib all in. Habib called with {A-Diamonds}

{A-Diamonds}

{K-Spades}

/

{J-Hearts}

{4-Hearts}

{Q-Diamonds}

{5-Hearts}

and found himself looking for one of the two remaining tens. His river was not a ten; it was the {K-Clubs}

{K-Clubs}

.

Habib's reward for fifth place is $80,969.
