David Peters Eliminated in 5th Place ($66,834)

[user66118]

Level 24 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante

The table folded around to the blinds, and David Peters shoved all in for 145,000 from the small. That put the decision on Ali Eslami in the big, and he took about two minutes to make sure before calling with his big stack. Peters was dominated:

Peters: {A-Clubs} {4-Hearts}
Eslami: {A-Hearts} {8-Clubs}

The {6-Clubs} {6-Diamonds} {8-Spades} flop was bad news for Peters, and it was looking like he wouldn't even be able to find a chop to stay alive. The turn {Q-Spades} left him drawing stone dead, and the river {4-Diamonds} was just a needle in his side.

With an inferior two pair, David Peters has been sent to the rail in 5th place. That's good for more than $66,000 in prize money, and we'll see him again in Las Vegas for the WSOP-C National Championship in May.
