Don Baumer - 5th Place
Don Baumer - 5th Place

Don Baumer had been among the bigger stacks for most of the day. He just lost a massive pot to Cory Bogert and then was eliminated on the very next hand. In the middle of all that, Jeremy Scharf picked up aces and almost tripled up.

On the first hand, the board read {6-Spades}{4-Spades}{9-Hearts} and Bogert checked to Baumer. He bet 250,000 and Bogert called.

The turn was the {10-Hearts} and Bogert open shoved for about 900,000 more. Baumer called and turned over queens. Bogert showed two pair with {10-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}. The river was the {5-Clubs} and Baumer was left with scraps.

On the next hand, Baumer went all in under the gun for 150,000 and Scharf called. Bogert shoved to put Scharf all in and Scharf snap called.

Scharf had aces against the {a-Spades}{6-Spades} of Bogert and the {j-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} of Baumer. Scharf would win the hand and almost triple up.
