Ray Cook Eliminated in 16th Place (NZ$8,679)

Ray Cook - 16th Place
Ray Cook - 16th Place
Ray Cook was down to his last 16,000 chips, with 8,000 of those in the big blind when Ke Sijia raised to 25,000 from early position. Cook tossed in his last 8,000 but didn't like what he saw.

Cook: {J-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}
Sijia: {A-Diamonds}{A-Clubs}

The flop of {Q-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{K-Spades} gave Cook some hope of survival with a flush draw but the {6-Hearts} turn and {Q-Spades} river bricked out to eliminate Cook from the tournament. He did well to make it to the next payout jump with his short stack, eventually busting in 16th place for NZ$8,679 in prize money.
