Swick Takes a Licking

"All in and call on 316!" quickly brought our attention to the Orange feature table, where Michael Swick was trying to avoid elimination. Swick's {a-Hearts}{q-Diamonds} was behind his opponent's {a-Diamonds}{k-Hearts} and remained so all the way through the river of a {9-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{6-Clubs} board. Each player made trip sixes, but Swick's kicker wasn't big enough. He lost the pot and is out.
