After Justin Macella opened to 90,000 from the cutoff, Michael Frierson moved all in for 835,000 on the button.

Macella pondered briefly and then called.

Michael Frierson: {a-Clubs}{10-Clubs}
Justin Macella: {k-Spades}{q-Diamonds}

The board came {j-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{6-Spades}{k-Hearts}, pairing Frierson's ten on the flop, but beating him on the river with Macella's paired king.

Frierson took home a career-best tournament score of $33,366 for his 5th place finish.
