Action folded around to Kelly Saxby on the button and she shoved for what looked like about 18,000,000. Paul Hockin re-shoved from the small blind and Rainer Kempe, who was in the big blind, folded.
Saxby: 
Hockin: 
Hockin had the preflop advantage with the better ace and Saxby needed help from the deck in order to preserve her tournament life. After the board ran out 
Hockin was still best, so he took the pot to end Saxby's run in this tournament.
With Saxby's elimination, the unofficial final table has been reached. The seat draw will be posted shortly.
