Hand #63 - Dolph Arnold has the button in seat 4, Schleger moves all in under the gun for 165,000, and Chu calls from the big blind with {K-Spades}{10-Clubs}. Schleger shows {A-Spades}{Q-Clubs}, and he'll need his hand to hold up to stay alive.

The flop comes {10-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{3-Clubs}, and Chu takes the lead with a pair of tens. The turn card is the {9-Clubs}, and Schleger needs to catch an ace or a queen to survive.

The river card is the {7-Spades}, and Chu wins the pot with a pair of tens.

Shane Schleger is eliminated in fifth place, earning $111,455. The next player eliminated will receive $157,050 for fourth place.

Hand #62

Hand #62 - Tommy Vu has the button in seat 3, he raises to 125,000, and Arnold calls from the small blind. The flop comes {A-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{4-Clubs}, and both players check. The turn card is the {8-Diamonds}, Arnold checks, Vu bets 125,000, and Arnold calls. The river card is the {2-Hearts}, and both players check. Arnold shows A-10 to win the pot with a pair of aces.

Hand #61 - Barry Cales Doubles Through Shane Schleger

Hand #61 - Shane Schleger has the button in seat 2, Cales moves all in under the gun for 395,000, Schleger moves all in over the top from the button, and everyone else folds. Cales shows {A-Spades}{8-Spades}, but Schleger dominates him with {A-Clubs}{10-Clubs}. Cales needs to improve to stay alive.

The flop comes {J-Spades}{9-Clubs}{4-Spades}, and Cales picks up a spade flush draw. The turn card is the {8-Hearts}, and Cales takes the lead with a pair of eights. Schleger is behind, and he needs a queen, ten, or seven that is not a spade to bust Cales here.

The river card is the {8-Clubs}, and Cales doubles up with trip eights to 875,000 in chips. Schleger drops down to 175,000.
