Mitchnick Out; Two Tables Remain

Shamus

Level 23 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante

Lynne Mitchnick had just survived one all-in hand versus Brian Ali. She'd committed the last of her short stack with {A-Diamonds} {9-Diamonds} against Ali's {A-Spades} {10-Spades} , then earned a chop when the board ran out {J-Clubs} {10-Diamonds} {2-Diamonds} {K-Hearts} {Q-Spades} .

Talk of her missing the flush followed, to which she replied "Yeah, I'll take a chop."

Her survival was short-lived, however, as soon she was all in again against Ali. This time she had the preflop advantage with {K-Spades} {J-Diamonds} to Ali's {K-Clubs} {10-Clubs} . And she was still ahead through the turn as the board read {6-Clubs} {K-Diamonds} {3-Spades} {4-Clubs} . But the {10-Spades} on the river paired Ali's kicker, and Mitchnick is out in 19th, earning $6,134. Ali meanwhile looks to have chipped up over one million, the first player to cross that threshold.
