Michael Liang Eliminated in 5th Place ($51,700)
Niveau 36
: Blinds 300,000/600,000, 600,000 ante
Action folded to Santiago Plante in the small blind who jammed. Michael Liang quickly called off in the big blind to put himself at risk and send both players to a runout.
Michael Liang: K♦J♣
Santiago Plante: A♠2♣
The flop came 10♣7♦8♣, keeping Plante in the lead, but when the K♠ hit the turn, the lead quickly changed.
As the dealer burned a card and started to put out the river, Plante's rail was screaming for an ace and when it appeared on the river in the form of the A♣, the lead swung back in Plante's direction, his rail went crazy and Liang was forced to stand and exit the tournament area in fifth place for $51,700.
