Ali Eslami Eliminated in 5th Place ($50,000)
Ryan Messick raised to 120,000 with 
and Ali Eslami called out of the big blind with 
. On the 
flop, Eslami check-called a bet worth 60,000 and they headed to the 
turn. Eslami bet 480,000 with just one chip behind and Messick snap-called and revealed the nuts without realizing Eslami was not all in. Knowing he was drawing dead, Eslami folded and saved his last 5,000.
In the very next hand, Eslami was all-in for the last 5,000 out of the big blind and Raul Garza limped in the cutoff, as did Robert Cowen on the button while Messick checked the option in the big blind. It checked to Cowen on the 
flop, who bet 160,000 and isolated.
Ali Eslami: 
Robert Cowen: 
While Eslami had some outs even after the 
turn, the 
river only improved Cowen to the ten-high straight and Eslami departed in fifth place for $50,000.
