Charles Furey - 5th Place
"Now we're talking!" said the tournament director announcing this final table. He was referring to some significant action preflop. Charles Furey opened with a raise to 135,000 that Ken Aldridge re-raised to 400,000. Furey responded by moving all in; Aldridge quickly called.
Furey:
Aldridge:
Aldridge had Furey covered, but only just barely. With Aldridge standing and Furey seated, the flop came down . Both players reacted; Aldridge gave a short fist-pump while Furey slammed the table in frustration. The on the turn was a good sweat card, as it gave Furey a flush draw, but the on the river didn't help him at all.
Furey was eliminated in 5th place, earning $80,896. Aldridge, meanwhile, has the chip lead once again.
