Patrick Leonard Eliminated in 16th Place ($20,425)
Level 17
A-5 Triple Draw
Ari Engel had previously won a bigger pot off Zack Freeman while Patrick Leonard got one all-in through but remained very short.
His all-in from the cutoff was then called by Engel and Mike Gorodinsky out of the blinds when the game variant changed.
Engel and Gorodinsky took three cards while Leonard took two. It checked around by the active players, as everyone then discarded two each.
Another round of checks let to the final draw on which Engel took one, Gorodinsky two and Leonard patted. They checked again and Engel tabled the 6x5x3x2xAx, while Gorodinsky briefly showed an inferior hand. Leonard exposed his 9x7x4x3xAx before heading to the payout desk.
"Guess I gonna get some sleep now," he joked on the way out.
