Tom Dwan Eliminated in 5th Place ($134,480)

Level 25
Tom Dwan - 5th Place
Tom Dwan - 5th Place

Stud

Shawn Buchanan completed only to have Tom Dwan two-bet. Buchanan called, and then called on fourth street as Dwan bet 100,000 on fifth. Buchanan raise to 200,000 and Dwan slid in 300,000 leaving himself just 5,000. Buchanan capped it and Dwan made the call for his 305,000 to be at risk as both player's boards sat as follows.

Buchanan: {J-Diamonds}{8-Spades} / {8-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{A-Diamonds}
Dwan: {K-Hearts}{9-Spades} / {A-Spades}{8-Hearts}{9-Clubs}

With Dwan in the lead, he caught the {10-Hearts} as Buchanan improved with the {4-Diamonds}. Now needing any diamond, ace, jack, eight or five to improve, Buchanan would squeeze out the {6-Diamonds} on seventh to give him an unbeatable flush.

Dwan tossed his seventh street card in the air, and although it flipped off the table, it was revealed to be the {3-Spades} as Dwan was already shaking his hands with his opponent before making his way to the rail in 5th place for a $134,480 payday as Buchanan moves to 1,300,000 in chips.
