Sam Khouiss - 5th Place
Paul Taylor raised from the cutoff and Sam Khouiss called from the big blind. The flop was {8-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{3-Hearts}. Khouiss bet and Taylor called. The turn was the {A-Hearts}. Khouiss checked, Taylor bet and Khouiss tanked for several minutes before finally folding. Taylor showed {9-Spades}{7-Spades} for a stone bluff. Khouiss was left with only 10,000 in chips after the hand.

On the next deal, Paul Taylor and Khouiss saw a flop of {8-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}. Khouiss bet the last of his chips on the flop and Taylor called. Taylor showed {8-Clubs}{10-Clubs} for top pair while Khouiss tabled the {K-Clubs}{5-Diamonds} for a straight draw. The turn was the {6-Hearts}, the river was the {J-Diamonds}, and Khouiss hit the rail in 5th place, collecting $5,040.
