Hand #21: Tom Lutz Eliminated in 5th Place ($245,927)

Tom Lutz - 5th Place
Tom Lutz - 5th Place
Richard Lyndaker raised to 85,000 from the cutoff, and Tom Lutz reraised to 210,000 from the button. The blinds got out of the way, and Lyndaker put the additional 125,000 in to make the call.

The flop came {9-Clubs}{Q-Clubs}{8-Hearts}. Lyndaker quickly slid out two tall stacks of chips -- a bet of 275,000. Lutz didn't act right away. Then, after a minute or so, Lutz reraised to 550,000. Lyndaker quickly moved all in, and Lutz made the call with his remaining 1,000,000 or so.

Lyndaker {9-Hearts}{9-Spades}
Lutz {A-Hearts}{A-Diamonds}

Lyndaker had flopped a set of nines, and was far ahead of Lutz's pocket rockets. The turn brought the {4-Clubs}, and Lutz needed one of the other two aces to survive.

The river was the {2-Spades}, and Lutz was out in fifth.
