Shaun Deeb Eliminated in 4th Place ($67,146)
No-Limit Hold'em
Shaun Deeb had been on a downward spiral for the last couple of hours and in the last hand of the night, he succumbed to Travis Pearson in fourth place.
Chris Lee folded from under the gun before Deeb open-shoved his last 129,000 in from the button. Brian Haveson folded his small blind and Pearson called from the big blind, showing down against Deeb's measly-looking .
The flop of improved neither hand, but although Deebs' supporters cheered when the fell on the turn, that soon turned to groans as they realized that Pearson had the bigger straight. Needing a ten to chop, the blanked out on the river and Deeb's hopes of finally snaring his first WSOP bracelet were dashed.
And with that hand complete, it's time to wrap this one up and come back tomorrow with our final three!
