Thomas Lutz Out in 22nd Place ($12,780); Out of WPT California Swing Contention

Mimi Luu raises from the button to 25,000, Thomas Lutz (pictured above) moves all in from the small blind for 161,000, and Luu calls with [AhKs]. Lutz turns over [Kd10d], and he needs to improve to stay alive.

The board comes [5s4h3c2cJs], and Luu wins the pot with a five-high straight to eliminate Thomas Lutz in 22nd place.

Mimi Luu  –  580,000  (48 bb)
Thomas Lutz  –  Out in 22nd Place  ($12,780)

Lutz was one of the final contenders to win the WPT California Swing title, finishing 31st at Bay 101 and 22nd here. But it wasn’t enough to keep pace with Michael Rocco, who finished third at LAPC and at least 21st here.
