Mike Summers Eliminated in 6th Place ($22,704)

Level 28 : 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante
Mike Summers - 6th place
Mike Summers - 6th place

Mike Summers raised to 90,000 from the hijack seat, and Matthew Waxman three-bet to 155,000 from the button. Summers called the extra bit, and it was heads up to the flop.

When the dealer rolled out {A-Diamonds} {3-Diamonds} {5-Hearts}, Summers elected to ship his last ~500,000 into the middle. Waxman snap-called, and just like that, a pot of well over 1 million chips was piled in the middle with Summers' tournament life hanging in the balance.

Showdown
Summers: {Q-Diamonds} {J-Diamonds} (flush draw)
Waxman: {A-Clubs} {A-Spades} (top set)

The turn {Q-Hearts} did nothing to help Summers' cause, looking for a diamond and a diamond only to stay alive. The river was the right color, but the {10-Hearts} was the wrong suit. Summers can not catch up to Waxman's aces, ending his day as the 6th-place finisher. The pay bump takes him up over $20,000 in profit for three days of work.

Waxman is now the big leader with 2.74 million chips, nearly 40% of the total in play.
