Eugene Du Plessis Eliminated in 5th Place ($53,267

Eugene Du Plessis - 5th Place

Greg Hobson raised to 40,000 and was called by Harrison Gimbel. Eugene Du Plessis moved all in for 210,000 and both players called.

The three saw a {10-Spades}{Q-Hearts}{4-Spades} flop with Du Plessis' life on the line. Hobson bet 105,000 and Gimbel's hand quickly reached the muck. The hands were turned over and Du Plessis was in need of some help.

Du Plessis: {A-Clubs}{K-Spades}
Hobson: {A-Spades}{Q-Spades}

Hobsob's paired queen was in the lead and the {7-Spades} and {10-Diamonds} on the turn and river sealed Du Plessis fate. He was sent to the rail as our 5th place finisher.
