Event 5: Bad Orbit for Herrold - Out in 5th

A nightmarish orbit for Peter Herold as two hands ended his event. 

First, Herold wnet all in over the top of Larry Samet who called.  Herold had the lead hold A5 against Samet's KJ.  Unfortunately for Herold, Samet hit a king on the flop and running tens crippled Herold.

Herold then went all in after Chin Nguyen's bet.  Herold was trailing with A7♠ against Nguyen's AK♥.

The flop hit Nguyen's king but with two spades on the board the door was open for Herold to survive.  But no help came and Peter Herold headed out the door in 5th place but $16,469 in his pocket.

Peter Herold - Brooklyn, NY - $16,469
