Tony Cousineau Eliminated in 6th Place ($44,543)
Level 25

Hands #61: A short-stacked Tony Cousineau completed with the up and Mike Leah, who was showing the , called. Cousineau led out on fourth and did the same on fifth after Leah called. Instead of calling on fifth, Leah raised it and then called when Cousineau three-bet all in.
Cousineau showed a pair of aces, which was good for the high at that point as Leah was sitting on a low. Unfortunately for Cousineau, sixth street gave Leah a straight to go with his low. Neither sixth nor seventh streets helped Cousineau, and he was eliminated in sixth place.
Not only that, Cousineau added to his streak of most WSOP cashes, now at 55, without a WSOP bracelet.
