Matthew Graham Eliminated in 5th Place ($171,135)

Matthew Graham - 5th Place
Matthew Graham - 5th Place

Matthew Graham opened the betting with a raise to 150,000 from the cutoff. It folded to Vladimir Mefodichev's small blind and he moved out a three-bet to 375,000. Graham called and the two were off to see a flop.

A rather monotone flop hit the felt - {3-Spades}{4-Spades}{8-Spades}. Mefodichev continued out with 300,000 and it only took a brief moment for Graham to announce all in. Mefodichev did not hesitate in announcing a call, tabling {10-Spades}{9-Spades} for a flopped flush. Graham hung his head and showed {9-Clubs}{9-Hearts} and was in dire need of help.

The {J-Hearts} on the turn left Graham drawing dead and the dealer completed the board with the {10-Diamonds}. Graham will take home $171,135 for his efforts.
