6th Place: Noah Norick ($5,199)
Noah Norick was all in preflop with [9s][9h] and was up against Steven Tabb's [Td][Tc]. The [Ad][Th][7s] flop meant Noah was drawing only to a runner runner straight. He did pick up the best card he could on the [8h] turn, but the [7h] river just missed himm giving Steven a full house. Noah will exit Event #8 in 6th place, taking hom $5,199.

Jason Surro - 403,000
Steven Tabb - 346,000
Michael Falcone - 161,000
Kevin Calenzo - 149,000
7th Place: Tarun G. ($4,006)
Renick Patterson raised on the button and Noah Norick called in the small blind before Tarun G. moved all in from the big blind. Renick snap called and Noah folded, and Renick tabled [Ad][Ac]. Tarun could only show [Kh][Ts]. Kevin Calenzo said, "I have a bad feeling about this" as the [5h][7s][Ks] flop fell. "See," he said, and then said, "running spades?" The [Qs] hit the turn, giving Tarun a mountain of outs. But the [4c] hit the river instead, sending Tarun G. to the rail in 7th place. He will collect $4,006 for his efforts.
Out in 7th, sqz shoved KT in the bb over btn open and sb flat, btn had Aces. Flopped a King, turned a flush draw but bricked out. Good game!— TαrÏ…n (@nuratpkr) August 13, 2015
8th Place: Grant Lang ($3,133)
Grant Long moved all in from middle position and was called by Steven Tabb. The rest of the players folded and the two exposed their hands:
Grant [4d][4c]
Steven [Ah][Kh]
"Another classic," proclaimed Kevin Calenzo as the two were off to the races. The [Qs][8d][Ac] put Steven in front, and no four appeared on the [6s] turn or [2h] river. Grant will be eliminated in 8th place, collect $3,133 for his efforts.
9th Place: Mikhail Alkhazov ($2,503)
From the button, Mikhail Alkhazov moved all in, and Jason Surro made the call from the big blind. Mikhail held [9d][9c] but was unlucky to have run into Jason's [Td][Tc]. The [8h][4d][Jh][Kc][2c] board could not save Mikhail's tournament life. He will exit Event #8 in 9th place, collecting $2,503 for his efforts.
Jason Surro doubles through Kevin Calenzo
At 2,000/4,000 blinds with a 500 ante, Grant Lang raised to 10,500 before Jason Surro rerasied to 42,000. Action folded to Kevin Calenzo in the big blind who declared himself all in. Grant snap folded, and Jason took a moment before calling, asking Kevin, "You got it?" Kevin said, "I have... a hand," as he revealed [Jh][Jc]. Jason was flipping for a tournament life as he held [As][Kh]. The [8h][8s][8d] flop gave Kevin a full house, but Jason was still live with his overcards. The [Qh] brought some chop outs, but the [Ks] on the river gave Jason the winning hand. He will double up to 290,000.
Kevin Calenzo doubles up with a full house
On a [Ad][4d][Qs][Qh][4s] board, Kevin Calenzo moved all for 67,000 and was called by Grant Lang. Kevin revealed the [Kh][Qc] for queens full of fours, and Grant mucked. After the hand, Kevin is up to 250,000.
Tarun G. doubles up twice
On the first hand of the final table, a short stacked Tarun G. doubled up with [Ad][8d] against his opponent's [Qh][Jh].
The last hand just saw Tarun double up again, this time with [Jd][Jc] against his opponent's [Ac][8c], all in on a [Jh][7d][Ah] board. The [3c] turn and [Ad] river gave Tarun a winning full house.
He now sits on 194,500 at Level 17 begins (2,000/4,000 blinds with a 500 ante).
10th Place: John Comeau ($2,027)
John Comeau was all in preflop holding [8h][8c] but ran into his opponent's [Ad][Ac]. John failed to find an eight on the [6d][6s][Ts][Kc][7d] board, and he will exit Event #10 in 10th place. John will collect $2,027 for his efforts.

Seat 10: Jack Duong - 531,000
1st Place: Daniel Pickering ($27,653)
Daniel Pickering and James Karos had been playing heads up for nearly three hours, and the chip lead traded back and forth several times. After coolering James a few hands earlier, Daniel had James all in again with a coin flip. Daniel's [4h][4d] was up against James's [Ah][7c]. James was drawing nearly dead on the [4c][9c][3s] flop, and the [9s] gave Daniel an unbeatable full house. Once the [Ac] hit the river, Daniel was declared the winner of Event #5 $365 NLH Monster Stack. He will take home $27,653 along with the title and World Series of Poker Circuit ring. Congratulations, Daniel!
Daniel Pickering coolers James Karos
Daniel Pickering doubles through James Karos
At 60,000/120,000 blinds with a 20,000 ante, Daniel Pickering moved all in for 1,920,000 and was snap called by James Karos. Daniel had the edge with his [Ad][7c] against James's [Kh][Th]. The [Qd][9s][3s] flop gave James ten outs, and the [9c] on the turn changed nothing. The [8c] river was the blank Daniel was looking for, and he will double up to bring this match close to even.
A few hands later, the blinds were increased to 80,000/160,000 with a 20,000 ante.

Heads up chip counts
Play is down to the final two players in Event #5 $365 Monster Stack. It's a very close match as Daniel Pickering has a very slight lead with 4,340,00 to James Karos's 4,020,000. The two are taking a quick bathroom break before resuming play.
3rd Place: Tom Dragone ($12,570)
On a [Ks][7s][5c][2c] board with over 1,000,000 in the pot, James Karos moved all in for over 1,400,000 and Tom Dragone made the call. James held [Kc][9s] for top pair, and Tom would need to improve with his [9c][7c]. The river fell the [Qd], awarding James the double up.
On the very next hand, Tom Dragone moved all in with K-3 and was called by Daniel Pickering with [9h][9c]. There was a king in the window, but the flop fanned out [9s][Th][Kc] to leave Tom drawing thin. The [6d] sealed his fate, and when the meaningless [2c] hit the river, Tom was eliminated in 3rd place. He will collect $12,570 for his efforts.

Daniel Pickering takes a huge chip lead
The board read [4c][4h][3d][3c] and James Karos check raised Daniel Pickering's 250,000 bet. It was 650,000 more chips to call, and Daniel put them in after a long pause. The river landed [Qh] and James instantly bet out 1,000,000 roughly half his remaining stack. Daniel briefly thought and made the call. James confidently flipped over pocket aces, but Daniel had gotten lucky on the turn with his ace trey.
After the hand, Daniel had 6,200,000, or roughly 75% of the chips in play.

4th Place: Andrew Kaplan ($9,288)
Andrew Kaplan was all in preflop holding [Ac][7d] and was up against Daniel Pickering's [4s][4h]. The [2h][2s][2c] gave Andrew one additional out, but the [9d] turn and [5s] river gave Daniel the winning full house. Andrew will exit Event #5 in 4th place, good for $9,288.
5th Place: Todd Bartlett ($6,989)
After being crippled by James Karos the previous hand, Todd moved the rest of his stack in with [Kd][9d] and was called by [Ad][5s]. The [5h][7h][8d] gave Todd a gutshot, and the [Tc] on the turn gave him an open ended straight draw. The [2c] river kept the pair of fives in front, and Todd Bartlett will exit Event #5 in 5th place, good for $6,989.
James Karos doubles through Todd Bartlett
From the button, Todd Bartlett raised to 175,000 and James Karos moved all in for 1,090,000. Andrew Kaplan folded his big blind, and Todd snap called with [Ad][Ac]. James was disgusted as he tabled his [As][9h]. The [4s][2c][2s] fell, and a player called for a spade to hit the turn for a sweat. A spade did hit when the [Qs] fell on the turn, and amazingly the [8s] hit the river to complete the runner-runner straight. Todd could only say, "Every time" as he pushed over all but 300,000 of his stack to James.

8th Place: Noel Dorsett ($3,268)
Noel Dorsett moved all in from the button and was called by Andrew Kaplan in the big blind. Noel was ahead with his [Ac][8c] against [As][2d], but the [9d][2c][5s] flop chaned that. Noel would need to catch an eight to survive, but the board ran out [Qh][Qc] to give Andrew the winning two pair. Noel will finish Event #5 in 8th place, good for $3,268.
9th Place: Nick Major ($2,636)
Nick Major was all in holding [Kd][Js] and was up against Bob Ricciuti's [Ad][Ks]. The [9c][Td][9s] flop gave Nick a gut shot to go with his live card, and the turn [8s] gave him more straight outs. But the [4c] river was a blank, and Bob's ace high will hold up. Nick will exit Event #5 in 9th place, good for $2,636.
