Event 17 - Level 5 - The Storm Before The Calm!
1 year ago
If the last level was characterized by incredible action, multiple eliminations and giant pots, this level has seen the players settle into a more laid back routine, the players seemingly exercising caution with a much coveted bracelet so close at hand.
Then no sooner do PokerListings make this comment than we get ANOTHER knockout!
Nothing To Moan (ahan) About (OUT - 4th)
Rory Monahan has struggled manfully on with his shortstack but was always likely to be forced into making a move with the rising blinds.
He'd been pushing it for a while and finally got looked up, his 6
5
live at least versus the A
Q
of John Strzemp.
An Ace hit the flop to move Strzemp into a more dominant position and despite picking up a flush draw on the turn Rory couldn't hit the club he needed on the river.
Rory Monahan is OUT, eliminated in 4th spot, winning $82,582 for his troubles.
The chase for WSOP gold continues three handed.
Here are the players' counts as we approach the dinner break...
