Brent Hanks Eliminated in 5th Place ($68,975)
Level 25
: 15,000/30,000, 5,000 ante
Hand #91: Jess Dioquino raised to 66,000 under the gun and won the pot.
Hand #92: Jess Dioquino got a walk in the big blind.
Hand #93: Eric Baldwin got a walk in the big blind.
Hand #94: Action folded to Eric Baldwin in the small blind and he shoved all in to put the pressure on Brent Hanks in the big blind. Hanks looked down at the 
, called off for 290,000 and was excited to see he was dominating the 
of Baldwin.
The pair were the only ones at the final table with WSOP gold (they each have one), but Hanks' dream of capturing his second was put in serious jeopardy when the 
flop gave Baldwin a set of threes. The 
turn meant Hanks needed an eight on the river, but it was not meant to be as the 
peeled off.
