Katie Swift Eliminated in 7th Place (£100,000)
Katie Swift moved all in for 37.9 million chips from early position and the action folded to Maria Lampropulos on the button. Her cards were not showing and she gave it plenty of consideration, then folded.
Jeremy Pantin then moved all-in from the small blind and Jon Spinks let it go in the big blind.

The board ran out and Swift had been eliminated in 7th place for £100,000, while all remaining six players locked up £150,000 minimum.
Katie Swift's exit from the final table sees Maria Lampropulos as the last remaining female player, but Swift herself is proud of her efforts despite falling short in her bid to become MILLIONS Main Event champion.
"It was the hand before that was the pivotal hand. After losing that I was down, but still had 100 million chips and that's enough to recover. Then came the hand against Stephen."
Katie Swift's ace-king lost to Chidwick's ace-jack after being all-in pre-flop and it was obviously painful for the Kent based mum-of-one.
"It was tough, especially when my son's called Jack, and he's nine. It came nine-nine, jack jack! It is what it is; Stephen's not doing anything different there, he was short stacked. It plays itself, I've had times where I've done that to others, so it's fine. I can't moan about that. I had aces against a set of sevens and found a flush, so coming 7th in this tournament out of 7,000 isn't a failure."
Now she's gone, Katie can see another lady winning the title.
"Everyone on this final table is going for it now. Stephen could maybe have dominated, but I' hoping Maria will go for it, she's a lovely girl. They've all done well wherever they finish."
