Joseph Tracy Eliminated in 6th Place ($23,000)

Joseph Tracy - 6th place

Chris Klodnicki began the hand with a minimum-raise to 32,000 from under the gun, then Edward Pham made it 77,000 from middle position. It folded back around to Joseph Tracy in the big blind and after a pause to consider the situation Tracy four-bet to 171,000. Klodnicki looked things over himself for a short while before folding, then Pham took about a half-minute before calling.

The flop brought three big cards — {Q-Diamonds}{A-Clubs}{K-Diamonds} — and Tracy responded by pushing all in for about 430,000. Pham didn't take too long before calling, and Tracy flipped over {K-Spades}{6-Hearts} for a pair of kings. Meanwhile Pham tabled {A-Diamonds}{A-Spades} for a set of aces, and after the {6-Clubs} turn and {8-Hearts} river, Tracy was on the rail.

Pham is still organizing his chips, but he appears to have around 1.5 million or so, a stack challenging Klodnicki's for the lead with five players remaining.
