David Sklansky Eliminated in Sixth Place ($20,528)

David Sklansky - 6th Place
David Sklansky - 6th Place
David Sklansky came into the final table the shortest of the six stacks, with just eight big bets. He couldn't get anything going and was finally all in for his last 12,000 before the first draw against Robert Mizrachi.

Both players drew two on the first draw. Sklansky took one on the second to Mizrachi's two. On the third draw, Sklansky again took one. Mizrachi stood pat.

After Sklansky was given his final draw card, Mizrachi opened 8-7-5-3-2. Sklansky showed 2-3-4-6. Only a seven or an eight could extend his tournament. He flipped his last draw card to reveal another 6 for a pair of sixes.

He got an ovation from the gathered crowd and walks away with $20,528 in prize money.
