Trevor Vanderveen Eliminated in 5th Place ($113,297)
Justin Cohen raised to 160,000 as the first to act and Mark Schmid called next in the hijack. Trevor Vanderveen then moved all in for 1,000,000 in the cutoff and Cohen snap-called. Schmid folded and the players revealed their hands.
Cohen: 
Vanderveen:

and he was eliminated. Schmid said that he had folded pocket eights and had he stuck around, he would have won the hand and perhaps eliminated both players. Woulda...coulda...shoulda.
