The action folded all the way to "LeslieGroves" in the small blind and they simply moved all in as Brunno "botteonpoker" Botteon in the big blind was down to fewer than 12 blinds. However, Botteon snap-called to create the following showdown.
Brunno "botteonpoker" Botteon: 
"LeslieGroves":
The fortune was not on the side of Botteon this time as he fell behind on the 
flop. The 
turn and 
river failed to provide any help as "LeslieGroves" even made a seven-high straight.
Botteon has been eliminated in 5th place which comes with $21,250 in bounty prizes and $44,749 in cash prizes.
