Joerg Engels Eliminated in 5th Place ($72,227)

Joerg Engels - 5th place
Joerg Engels - 5th place

Joerg Engels has survived a few all-in situations today, but his good fortune in those spots has finally run out.

Engels open-raised to 110,000 from the button, and Michael Greco called from the big blind. The flop came {6-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}. Greco checked, Engels pushed his remaining stack of approximately 260,000 in the middle, and Greco quickly called.

Greco {A-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}
Engels {A-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{4-Diamonds}

Greco's trip sixes put him well ahead of Engels. The turn was the {A-Hearts}, giving Greco a boat. And the river was the {7-Spades}, sending Engels to the rail.

That hand puts Greco a little over a million in chips, good for second with four players left.
