Steven Curtin - 5th place
$37,364

Steven Curtin opened for 180k and Billy O'Neil announced he was all-in on the button. The blinds got out of the way and Steven called all-in, showing AK suited. Billy was ahead with pocket 6s. His lead got bigger when the flop came T 7 6, but Steven had picked up a flush draw.

It was all over on the turn, however, as the case 6 fell, giving Billy quadzilla and the pot.

Steven 'SOS' Curtin finished in 5th place, earning $37,364.

Steven was born in Linden, NJ, but currently resides in Indian Trail, NC, outside Charlotte. He's a 40-year-old insurance agency owner and has been playing major tournaments for about two years.
