Gary Brakke
Gary Brakke (pictured) moves all in for 405,000 and Joe Villhauer calls from the big blind. Brakke shows Heart 5Club 5 and is flipping with the Diamond AClub Q of Villhauer.

They see a flop of Heart 6Diamond 6Club 10 and Brakke’s pocket fives maintain the lead. The dealer burns and turns the Spade A and Brakke pairs his ace to take control of the hand.

Brakke will need one of the remaining two fives in the deck to stay alive but the Heart 10river seals the deal for Villhauer. Brakke is eliminated in 4th place taking home $9,964.50 for his WPTDS Iowa Main Event efforts.
