Stephen Bokor was one of the many players participating in the Onnit Last Sticker Standing Contest, but alas for Bokor his chance at being the last Onnit sticker-wearing player standing — and recipient of a $5,000 cash prize — has ended here in Level 9.
In his last hand, Bokor watched a player raise to 2,000 from early position and get one caller from a seat over. It folded to Bokor who reraised all in for 14,700, and one of the two remaining players called him.
Bokor looked in decent shape with 
versus his opponent's 
. He was still fine through the 
flop and 
turn. But the river brought the 
to pair his opponent and send Bokor railward.

When we arrived at Maurice Hawkin's and Melanie Weisner's table, there was a 
board already out on the felt and around 10,000 already in the pot. Hawkins had led out of 6,500 and it was on Wesiner to act. After thinking for several moments, Weisner went with a call. When Hawkins tabled 
, his pair of aces were strong enough to send Wesiner's cards into the muck. With that, Wesiner is down to under 20,000 in chips.
