Patricia Cardner Eliminated in 6th Place ($97,580)

Jay Merchant limped from under the gun and Patricia Cardner made it 350,000 from the hijack. It folded to Matt Newcombe who three-bet to 730,000 from the big blind and Merchant got out of the way. Cardner moved out calling chips and the two saw a flop.

The dealer presented a flop of {6-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{6-Clubs} and Newcombe wasted no time announcing that he was all in. Cardner called all in for about 1,000,000 for her tournament life only to find that she was behind.

Newcombe: {J-Clubs}{J-Hearts}
Cardner: {9-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}

The board finished with the {Q-Spades} and the {K-Spades} and she was forced to settle for a sixth place finish and a $96,580 payday.
