Hand #30: Casey McCarrel Eliminated in 5th Place ($221,800)

Mar 18, 2011

Vivek Rajkumar raises from the button to 55,000, Steven Kelly reraises from the small blind to 140,000, and Casey McCarrel moves all in from the big blind for 331,000.

Rajkumar folds, and Kelly calls with [Jc10s]. McCarrel turns over [AhQh], and he needs it to hold up to stay alive.

McCarrel walks over to the rail to look at the reactions of his friends rather than the board.

The flop comes [10h6d4s], and McCarrel’s friends are silent as Kelly takes the lead with a pair of tens.

The turn card is the [Kh], and his friends cheer a bit as McCarrel picks up a gutshot straight flush draw. He needs an ace, a queen, a jack, or any heart to stay alive,

The river card is the [7c], and Steven Kelly wins the pot with a pair of tens to eliminate Casey McCarrel in fifth place.

Seat 1. Mike Matusow – 2,433,000

Seat 3. Alan Sternberg – 3,510,000

Seat 4. Vivek Rajkumar – 1,783,000

Seat 5. Steven Kelly – 4,726,000

Seat 6. Casey McCarrel – Out in 5th Place ($221,800)
