David Diaz Eliminated in 7th Place ($40,000)

Level 30
: Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante

David 'Lefty' Diaz open-shoved for 1,145,000 with K?8? and action folds to Jerry Yen in the big blind who makes the call with 4?5?.
Diaz was in a good position to double with his superior king-high, but the flop of 9?Q?5? gave Yen the lead with a pair of fives.
The turn 10? gave Diaz some extra outs as he picked up a gutshot, but the river Q? sent him to the rail in 7th place.
