Roberto Perez Eliminated in 5th Place ($74,648)
Niveau 44
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 0 ante
Roberto Perez pushed the last of his chips forward from the small blind and Doug Polk immediately made the call to put Perez at risk.
Roberto Perez: 7♣5♣
Doug Polk: A♥Q♦
Polk was well ahead preflop but the 4♥8♣2♥ flop gave Perez a multitude of outs. One of those outs came on the 5♦ turn and Perez seemed poised for a double up.
"I need a three!" Polk said to his rail. The dealer gave Polk exactly what he asked for with the 3♣ on the river. Polk quickly got up from his seat and did a victory lap around the table, high-fiving his rail on the way. He will face Chris Brewer in the semifinal matchup tomorrow while Sean Winter will face off against Chanracy Khun.
Roberto Perez will take home $74,648 for his impressive run.
