Ilan Rouah Eliminated in Fifth Place (��33,617)

Ilan Rouah - 5th Place
Ilan Rouah - 5th Place

From the cutoff seat, Phil Laak raised to 16,500. Ilan Rouah decided it was his time to make a stand and moved all in from the small blind. His total shove was worth 56,500, just under ten big blinds total. Action folded back to Laak and he made the call, holding the {J-Spades}{9-Hearts}. Rouah was in front with the {A-Clubs}{10-Hearts}, but Laak's cards were still very much live.

The flop came down {J-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{3-Spades} and Laak picked up a pair of jacks to take the lead. The turn card brought the {6-Spades} and with just one card to come, Rouah was left needing an ace and only an ace.

The final card to the board was the {Q-Spades} and Rouah was eliminated on the hand. He took home over ��33,000 for his finish. Laak was pushed the pot and moved his stack to 455,000.
