Alex "JinYang" Butcher Eliminated in 6th Place ($649 + $188 in Bounties)

In Level 20 with blinds of 6,000/12,000 and an ante of 1,500, Eric "alwaysliquid" Vanauken opened to 66,000 under the gun and Alex "JinYang" Butcher three-bet shoved in the hijack for 331,000. Action folded back to Vanauken and he immediately called.

Alex "JinYang" Butcher: {a-Hearts}{10-Hearts}
Eric "alwaysliquid" Vanauken: {k-Spades}{q-Spades}

Just moments after ceding a double, it looked as if Vanauken was about to give up another one to Butcher as the flop came {6-Spades}{2-Hearts}{5-Hearts} to cut his number of outs down to four. The turn {8-Clubs} left Butcher with just one card between him and a double, but the river {k-Clubs} gave Vanauken just what he needed to make the best hand and eliminate Butcher in sixth place.
