Zackary Estes Eliminated in 5th Place (€131,000)
Zackary Estes limped in from the small blind and Aliaksei Boika checked his option in the big blind. The Q♠J♥7♦ flop checked through to the A♣ turn. Estes bet 200,000 and was called. On the Q♥ river, Estes used a time extension before check-calling a bet of 650,000.
Boika tabled K♣10♣ for Broadway, reducing Estes to 3,700,000.
On the very next hand, Estes moved all in. Boika went deep into the tank, using two time banks while keeping a close eye on chip leader Christian Pedersen in the big blind. Boika eventually folded and immediately breathed a sigh of relief as Pedersen snap-called behind him.
Zackary Estes: A♥10♥ 
Christian Pedersen: J♥J♣
Boika revealed he had folded ace-nine suited before the runout and was extremely pleased with his decision.
The 9♠8♠4♣ flop left Estes trailing Pedersen's jacks, though he picked up additional outs after pairing his ten on the 10♣ turn. Estes, a cash game player competing in his first WSOP festival, was eliminated in fifth place after the 3♣ river.
