Ivan Schertzer Eliminated in 6th Place ($64,297)

Ivan Schertzer - 6th Place
Ivan Schertzer - 6th Place
We pick up the action on fourth street, heads up between Ivan Schertzer and Eric Drache.

Schertzer: (X-X) / {J-Hearts} {6-Hearts} {2-Diamonds} {J-Diamonds} / (X)
Drache: (X-X) / {9-Hearts} {10-Clubs} {3-Diamonds} {5-Hearts} / (X)

On fourth street, Schertzer bet, and Drache flatted him. On fifth street, Schertzer bet once more, but Drache put in the raise to 80,000. Schertzer called all in for his final 20,000, putting his tournament life in danger. He had ammunition though, proudly opening up his buried {K-Spades} {K-Diamonds}. As he looked over toward Drache though, he bit his lip and said, "Sh*t!" seeing his opponent table {A-Spades} {A-Clubs}.

On sixth street, Drache drew a blank {5-Hearts}, while Schertzer spiked the {J-Diamonds}, double-pairing him and drawing a big, "YES!"

With one card to fade, Schertzer let Drache sweat his seventh street card first. After a long squeeze, Drache flipped up the {5-Clubs} to improve to aces up. Schertzer briefly sweated his own final card, but the {9-Clubs} that he pulled was of no use. His kings up weren't good enough to win him the pot, and he becomes our 6th-place finisher, pocketing nearly $65,000.
