Emil Patel Eliminated In 6th Place ($45,554)

From the hijack position, Emil Patel raised to 105,000 and Stephen Wolfe made the call out of the big blind. The flop fell {7-Spades} {7-Clubs} {8-Clubs} and Wolfe led out for a bet of 225,000. Patel instantly announced a reraise of the pot, putting himself all-in and Wolfe beat him to the pot with his call.

Showdown:

Patel: {Q-Clubs} {Q-Spades} {K-Spades} {2-Clubs}
Wolfe: {3-Clubs} {4-Diamonds} {5-Hearts} {6-Hearts}

Patel held a pair of queens and a four flush, while Wolfe had a wrap draw and could hit a number of cards to complete his straight.

Turn: {4-Spades}

One of those cards arrived on the turn and Wolfe vaulted into the lead with his straight. Patel would need to spike a queen for a full house or a club to make a flush if he hoped to survive.

River: {K-Hearts}

Wolfe pumped his fist in the air when he saw the safe card and yelled "Yes!" as the pot was pushed his way. Emil Patel hit the rail in 6th place and will take home a prize of $45,554 for his deep run through this field of over a thousand runners.
