Higgs Tames the Beast
Dylan Kehoe pointed out that Ryan Riess was just eliminated shortly before the end of Level 5. A quick glance at the table showed a massive stack for Sam Higgs and the 2014 WSOP Asia-Pacific bracelet winner told us what happened.

Riess checked, Higgs bet 12,000, got one call and one fold, then the former WSOP Main Event champion check-raised all in for just over 30,000 on top of Higgs' bet. Higgs moved all in to isolate.
