Level 23 : 8,000/15,000, 0 ante

Warchol called, then mucked his hand when Thompson showed {a-Hearts}{10-Spades}.

A few hands later, Thompson raised from the cutoff, and Warchol three bet from the button again. The flop came {4-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}{4-Clubs}, and Thompson checked. Warchol raise, and Thompson made it two bets. Warchol three bet it, and Thompson called. The {5-Hearts} hit the turn, and Thompson check called.

Mike Schiffman Eliminated in 5th Place ($38,905)

Level 23 : 8,000/15,000, 0 ante
Michael Schiffman - 5th Place
Michael Schiffman - 5th Place

Mike Schiffman saw Marco Johnson raise before the flop, and he made it three bets to play. Johnson flatted and the flop fell {a-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}.

Schiffman led out for a bet, Johnson smooth called, and the turn came {10-Diamonds}.

When Schiffman fired a second barrel, Johnson sprung his trap with a raise, and Schiffman quickly got his last bet into the middle.

Showdown:

Schiffman: {a-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}
Johnson: {10-Hearts}{10-Clubs}

Both players had a huge piece of the board, with Schiffman flopping two pair and turning the nut flush draw. Johnson found a set on the turn, however, and Schiffman needed help to survive. Unfortunately for him, the river bricked off, and he made his exit from the final table in 5th place.
