Steven Daly Eliminated in 5th Place ($51,663)
Level 38
: Blinds 500,000/1,000,000, 1,000,000 ante
Action folded to Steven Daly on the button who jammed all in and was snap-called by Jason Wheeler in the big blind who had Daly covered.
Steven Daly: K♦10♠
Jason Wheeler: 10♣10♥
Daly was in trouble and needed some help. The dealer duly obliged when he fanned out the A♣J♥K♥ flop and Daly soared into the lead.
Wheeler was drawing very thin to get the knock out and the 3♣ turn changed nothing.
However the poker gods have a wicked mind sometimes and duly served up the 10♦ on the river which gave Wheeler his set to send Daly to the rail in fifth place.
