Derek Gregory Eliminated in 5th Place ($197,691)
In what would be his last hand, Derek Gregory opened to 165,000 from the cutoff and was called by Dan Smith in the big blind.
The flop came 
and Smith checked to Gregory, who c-bet for 225,000. Smith then check-raised all in and Gregory quickly called all in for his last 1.3 million.
Smith: 
Gregory: 
Gregory was ahead, but would need to fade plenty of outs to survive. The 
turn gave Smith an open-ended straight draw and the 
left Smith with a winning straight for the knockout.
Smith is up to 6.7 million.
