Talal Shakerchi Eliminated in 5th Place ($539,817)
Level 30
: 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante
Dennis Weiss limped in from the small blind and Talal Shakerchi raised to 900,000 from the big blind. Weiss called and the dealer fanned the flop of 10♠10♣7♠. Weiss started with a check and Shakerchi cut out a bet of 1,100,000. Weiss still called and the 6♣ landed on the turn.
Weiss checked again and Shakerchi announced all in for his last 3,300,000. Weiss asked for a count and then called to put Shakerchi at risk.
Talal Shakerchi: A♣Q♥10♥8♠
Dennis Weiss: Q♦8♣7♣2♣
Shakerchi was the one way ahead with trip tens but Weiss found a dream turn card to give him straight and flush draws. It was the J♣ on the river that gave Weiss a flush and Shakerchi became the first casualty of the day in fifth place.
