Richard Lancaster Eliminated in 5th Place (NZ$42,606)

Richard Lancaster - 5th Place
Richard Lancaster - 5th Place
Gerome Guitteau raised it up to 70,000 from the button before Richard Lancaster moved all in from the big blind for all of his 225,000-chip stack. Guitteau insta-called.

Lancaster: {A-Clubs}{K-Clubs}
Guitteau: {A-Hearts}{Q-Hearts}

Lancaster was in a dominant position to double up but the board fell {3-Hearts}{J-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{10-Hearts}{K-Diamonds} to give Guitteau a running Broadway straight to take it down and eliminate Lancaster in 5th place. He collects NZ$42,606 for a fine tournament.
