Kristopher Tong Eliminated in 5th Place ($303,071)
Level 25
No-Limit Hold'em
Brian Rast opened to 300,000 on the button and then called the shove by Kristopher Tong out of the big blind for 3,200,000 total.
Kristopher Tong: 9?9?
Brian Rast: A?K?
The 10?8?2? flop gave Rast a lot more equity and the A? turn left Tong with just two outs. No miracle escape came on the 6? river and Tong had to settle for fifth place, which came with a payday of $303,071.
