Ward Eliminated by Ruha

Level 18 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

The pot already had around 80,000 and the flop read {6-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{q-Spades}.

The player under the gun had 38,000 in front of him. Martyn Ward had moved all in for 194,000 from middle position. Sam Ruha had shoved from the small blind for 480,000 and had the player under the gun covered.

Eventually the player under the gun folded and announced he had aces after the players tabled their cards.

Sam Ruha: {6-Spades}{6-Hearts}
Martyn Ward: {q-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}

Ward had flopped top pair and a flush draw but was behind to Ruha's flopped set of sixes. No help would come from the {2-Spades} on the turn or {10-Spades} on the river and Ward was sent to the rail.
