Tony Merksick Eliminated in 5th Place ($128,097)
Well, the previous hand WAS the biggest pot of the tournament, but this one just topped it.
From the cutoff seat, Sergey Altbregin raised. James Dempsey reraised on the button, Yueqi Zhu called from the small blind and then Tony Merksick made it four bets from the big blind. Altbregin called and then Dempsey made it five bets, capping the action. Zhu, Merksick and Altbregin all called.
The flop came down 
and Zhu fired out a bet. He was called in all three spots before the 
landed on the turn. Zhu fired out again and then Merksick called all in for his last 5,000 in chips. Altbregin and Dempsey both called after that.
The river card completed the board with the 
and paired it with sixes. Zhu bet out and Altbregin folded. Dempsey looked disgusted, but wound up making the call.
Zhu tabled the 
for kings full of sixes to beat Dempsey's 
and scoop in the side pot first. Merksick held the 
and was eliminated on the hand as Zhu was also pushed the massive main pot. His stacks now sits at nearly 2.7 million chips.
