Level 43 : Blinds 2,000,000/4,000,000, 4,000,000 ante

Action folded to Nellie Park in the small blind who moved all in for her last 20,000,000 or so. She was snapped off by Michael Smith in the big blind and cards were tabled.

Nellie Park:
Michael Smith:

It was a standard spot for Park but she was desperately unfortunate to run into such a good hand in the big blind and when the board ran out , though she did have a gut-shot to a straight going to the river, failed to catch up.

The last women remaining in the tournament is now busted, though Park will pocket $159,380 for her 6th place finish.
