Denotaristefani's tournament life was at stake, but he was way out in front. On the other hand, Landfish had the vast majority of his chips committed in to the pot, so a loss would leave him with less than 100,000. The 
turn changed nothing as Denotaristefani's supporters began to get louder.
Landfish needed one of two remaining nines on the river to steal the pot and eliminate his opponent. He seemed resigned to his fate, but when the 
spiked on the river, Landfish slapped the table in celebration. Denotaristefani's supporters fell deafly silent as their man was eliminated by a two outer. Denotaristefani will take home $94,029 for his fifth-place finish.
