Mike "Little Man" Sica Eliminated

With five players seeing a flop of {J-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{7-Hearts}, the action was checked around to Justin Bonomo in middle position who bet out 7,000. After an unknown player called behind him, action then fell to Mike "Little Man" Sica on the button who promptly moved all in. Melissa Hayden passed from the small blind, which left the action to John Alm in the big blind, who moved all in for approximately 25,000. The clock was then called on Bonomo, who folded after a long dwell, along with the unknown player behind him.

At the showdown, Sica turned over {7-Clubs}{7-Diamonds} and saw that Alm had flopped a bigger set with {9-Hearts}{9-Spades}. The {9-Diamonds} fell on the turn, leaving Sica drawing completely dead. After the hand, Alm stacked up right around 65,000 in chips and appears to be the new tournament chip leader.
