Dodd Dusts Butcher; Eli Eliminates Stone

In Level 13 with blinds of 1,400/2,800 and an ante of 350, there was 40,900 in the middle on a board of {9-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}{k-Spades}{4-Diamonds} with heads-up action between Alex "JInYang" Butcher in the big blind and Ryan "Whosyourdoddy" Dodd, who was in the hijack.

Butcher bet 10,200 and Dodd called, bringing the river {6-Hearts}. Butcher thought for a few moments and shoved all in for 41,400. Dodd immediately called and both players' hands were shown.

Alex "JinYang" Butcher: {6-Spades}{5-Diamonds}
Ryan "Whosyourdoddy" Dodd: {k-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}

Despite hitting a pair of sixes on the river, Butcher's missed gutshot straight draw was caught by Dodd's top pair and the pot was shipped his way. Dodd had already chipped up to over 300,000 and was the chip leader prior to the hand, and has now further increased his stack to 440,000. Butcher wasted no time re-entering and received a fresh stack of 50,000.

Meanwhile at an adjacent table, Borgata ambassador Katie "KatieStone" Stone had found herself below 10 big blinds and shoved all in preflop from late position with {k-}{8-} offsuit, only to run into the pocket aces of Ted "roystalin" Ely. Stone was unable to crack Ely's bullets and she was eliminated from the tournament as a result.
