Kotula's Rockets Eliminate Opponent

Jonathan Kotula, who won this event in 2008, raised preflop and had one caller. After the flop came {6-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}, Kotula bet 3,200 only to have his opponent push all-in. Kotula made the call and flipped over {A-Hearts}{A-Clubs}, while his opponent was behind with {10-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}. The turn was the {7-Hearts} and the river {J-Clubs}. Kotula eliminated another player and increased his stack to well over 40,000. Could Kotula take this event yet again?
