Yan Touchette has been eliminated in fifth place in a dramatic three-way all in. Touchette had his stack crippled on the previous orbit when he doubled up Ben Menache. With the blinds at 30K/60K, Touchette moved all in from under the gun for his last 160K. Alberto Dumitru, to his left, made the call before Christian Lortie moved all in from the small blind. Stephane Bedard then moved all in from the big blind, and Dumitru was forced to fold. The players rose from their seats as hands were tabled.
