Hand #28: Sam Trickett Eliminated in 4th Place ($245,927)

Sam Trickett - 4th Place
Sam Trickett - 4th Place
Joe Commisso had the button in seat 3. Sam Trickett raised to 90,000. Action folded to Edward Ochana in the big blind and he made the call.

The flop was the {10-Hearts} {8-Hearts} {6-Clubs}. Ochana led out for 105,000. Trickett announced a reraise, but thought before declaring an amount. He decided on making it 405,000 to go after a moment. Ochana moved all in. The fans jumped to their feet as the cards were revealed.

Trickett: {K-Hearts} {K-Spades}
Ochana: {6-Hearts} {6-Diamonds}

Both players stood up from their chairs to watch the action. The turn came down the {9-Spades}, no help to Trickett.

The river was the {4-Diamonds}, and Trickett walked over to shake Ochana's hand, followed by the rest of the players left at the table. He was eliminated in fourth place and earned $245,927.

Hand #27: Joe Commisso

The table folded around to Joe Commisso, who raised to 85,000 from the small blind. Richard Lyndaker called from the big blind.

The flop came {4-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{A-Hearts}. Commisso checked, and Lyndaker bet 100,000 -- a little over half the size of the pot. Commisso called.

The turn was the {6-Clubs}. Both checked.

The river was the {10-Spades}. Commisso bet 150,000 -- not half the size of the pot. Lyndaker folded, showing a seven as he did, and Commisso took the pot.

Hand #25: Edward Ochana

Joe Commisso raised to 80,000 from the cutoff, and Edward Ochana called him from the small blind.

The flop came {9-Hearts}{3-Clubs}{2-Spades}. Ochana checked, and Commisso tossed out a bet of 110,000. Ochana rapidly slid out a stack to make the call.

The turn was the {5-Spades}. Again, Ochana checked without much hesitation. Commisso counted out then pushed forward nine green 25,000 chips -- a bet of 225,000. Ochana quickly moved all in, and Commisso just as quickly folded.

Hand #24: Sam Trickett

Joe Commisso had the button in seat 3. Sam Trickett raised to 90,000 and Edward Ochana called from the big blind.

The flop came {9-Spades} {3-Clubs} {2-Diamonds} and Ochana checked to Trickett. Trickett bet 130,000. Ochana raised to 330,000. Trickett thought before making the call.

The turn was the {J-Diamonds} and Ochana checked. Trickett moved all in for 411,000 and Ochana folded his hand.

Hand #23: Joe Commisso

Sam Trickett raised to 90,000 from the button, and after pausing a beat Joe Commisso reraised to a total of 250,000. Richard Lyndaker folded from the big blind, and Trickett had a decision to make.

Trickett rechecked his cards, then after a minute of brooding gave it up.

Hand #21: Tom Lutz Eliminated in 5th Place ($245,927)

Tom Lutz - 5th Place
Tom Lutz - 5th Place
Richard Lyndaker raised to 85,000 from the cutoff, and Tom Lutz reraised to 210,000 from the button. The blinds got out of the way, and Lyndaker put the additional 125,000 in to make the call.

The flop came {9-Clubs}{Q-Clubs}{8-Hearts}. Lyndaker quickly slid out two tall stacks of chips -- a bet of 275,000. Lutz didn't act right away. Then, after a minute or so, Lutz reraised to 550,000. Lyndaker quickly moved all in, and Lutz made the call with his remaining 1,000,000 or so.

Lyndaker {9-Hearts}{9-Spades}
Lutz {A-Hearts}{A-Diamonds}

Lyndaker had flopped a set of nines, and was far ahead of Lutz's pocket rockets. The turn brought the {4-Clubs}, and Lutz needed one of the other two aces to survive.

The river was the {2-Spades}, and Lutz was out in fifth.
