Norman Rogers Eliminated in 5th Place ($41,190)
Level 26
: Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Norman Rogers opened in late position to 125,000 and got a call from Greg Himmelbrand in the big blind.
The 3♣A♥K♠ flop hit the felt and Himmelbrand check-called a 100,000 bet from Rogers on their way to a J♠ turn.
The action checked through and the 7♥ landed on the river. Himmelbrand led for 450,000 and without waiting long Rogers moved all in. Himmelbrand snap called.
Rogers tabled 7♠7♦ for a rivered set and Himmelbrand tabled Q♦10♦ for the turned nut straight and the cooler.
Rogers hit the rail in fifth place by way of a cold deck after an impressive run.
