Level 16 : 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Shaotong Chang
Shaotong Chang

A player in early position limped in and it folded to Shaotong Chang in the cutoff who moved all in for 56,000. The small blind called and the rest of the table folded.

Small Blind: {a-Spades}{q-Diamonds}
Shaotong Chang: {k-Spades}{j-Clubs}

The {8-Spades}{2-Spades}{2-Clubs}{7-Spades}{2-Hearts} runout was no help to Chang and she was sent to the rail just shy of the money.
