Ben Lai Eliminated in 5th Place (HK$1,170,000)
Sosia Jiang raised to 54,000 and Ben Lai called all in for that exact amount on the button. Raghav Bansal was in the big blind and leaned over from his chair to see if Lai had any further chips left, and Lai then grabbed his box of mints and put it on the cards. Bansal joked "if I win this, I get those as well?" and Lai grabbed the mints and tossed them over with a smile on the face. Bansal then called.
Both remaining active players checked the 
flop, the 
turn and the 
river. "I have a deuce" Bansal announced and showed 
. Jiang had that beat with 
and Lai's 
ended up third-best to eliminate the player from Hong Kong in 5th place for HK$1,170,000 (~US$152,100). The remaining four players already have HK$1,465,000 locked up, which equals approximately US$190,450.
