Lawrence Whyte Eliminated in 5th Place ($100,915)
Level 33
: Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante
Chip leader Lonny Weitzel raised under the gun to 900,000, and action folded to Lawrence Whyte in the big blind. After a moment or two to figure out a plan, Whyte moved all in for roughly 4,900,000, receiving a snap-call from Wietzel.
Lawrence Whyte: A♣10♦
Lonny Weitzel: K♠K♥
Whyte needed to find some help to stay alive, but the deck wasn't forthcoming, as the flop rolled off Q♥Q♠7♣, Whyte was left needing to find an ace, running tens or an unlikely running queens to stay alive.
The turn 10♣ did provide a little hope, but the river 4♠ sealed his fate, as he vacated his seat and said his goodbyes.
