Justin Saliba Eliminated in 5th Place ($499,097)
Level 26
: Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante
Jared Bleznick opened to 800,000 from the cutoff, Justin Saliba shoved for a bit over 6,000,000 from the big blind and Bleznick called with a covering stack to put Saliba at risk.
Justin Saliba: A?K?
Jared Bleznick: A?Q?
Bleznick winced upon seeing that Saliba had him dominated with a bigger ace and still needed a lot of help on the 8?6?5? flop. The 9? turn brought in a flush draw which came in on the 7? river. Saliba was sent to the rail in brutal fashion while Bleznick closed most of the distance between himself and Christoph Vogelsang for the chip lead.
