John Hennigan Has Been Eliminated

Just before the break Aaron Katz knocked John Hennigan out of the tournament. Hennigan raised and Katz called from the big blind, the flop came {5-Diamonds} {J-Diamonds} {Q-Diamonds} and when Katz bet Hennigan called for his last 5,300. Katz had flopped a flush with {2-Diamonds} {4-Diamonds} and Hennigan's {A-Spades} {6-Spades} needed to hope for two high diamonds to show to get a chop. But the turn was the {3-Clubs} and that sealed Hennigan's fate.
