David Zarrin is Eliminated in Fifth Place

[user37786]

In a three-way pot both David Zarrin and Greg Hopkins flopped aces with a so-so kicker on an A-J-10 board…but Pete Lawson, holding K-Q, flopped Broadway. Zarrin bet and when Lawson raised, that chased Hopkins out of the pot.

Zarrin called and both players checked the {7-Diamonds}

on the turn. The {Q-Diamonds}

on the river was a scare card that might have convinced Zarrin not to put any more chips in the pot, but he made a move for the rest of his chips and Lawson quickly called. That eliminated David Zarrin in fifth place, which was good for a $52,874 payday.
