Level 26
Faith Klimczak
Faith Klimczak

No-Limit 2-7 Single Draw

Faith Klimczak moved all in from early position and Marco Johnson called for his last 211,000. Johnson ended up with a 10-9-6 low to beat Klimczak's 10-9-8 and leave her with less than 200,000.

The next hand, Klimczak pushed all in again, Johnson re-shoved from the small blind, and Ben Yu in the big blind got out of the way.

Johnson turned over {q-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{2-Hearts} and Klimczak needed help with {10-Spades}{9-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}. Instead, she got a pair of fours and hit the rail in 11th place.
