Greg Miller Eliminated in 7th Place ($1,329); Rio Mansour Eliminated in 6th Place ($1,728)
Level 22
: 10,000/20,000, 2,000 ante
What a hand. Greg Miller moved all in for 117,000 from under the gun, and Marcy Jo Penkalski called directly behind. Action folded over to Rio Mansour on the button, and he moved all in for 62,000 more. Action was still pending, but Mansour mistakenly exposed pocket aces. The blinds folded, and Penkalski claimed she didn't see Mansour's hand before calling the additional 62,000.
[Removed:433]: 
Miller: 
Penkalski: 
Incredibly, Penkalski drillled a set on the 
flop, and she faded a re-suckout when the 
and 
completed the board. Since Miller had less he earned seventh place money, and Mansour is our sixth-place finisher. Penkalski is now the overwhelming leader.
