Jeff Madsen: 4x2x/5x5x6x6x/Qx
Wendy Freedman: Ax9x/5x3xQx3x/6x
Andrew Robinson: XxXx/AxKx7x - folded on fifth street

Three ways on fourth street, Wendy Freedman bet and was called by Andrew Robinson and Jeff Madsen.

Freedman bet again on fifth, which got a fold from Robinson and a raise from Madsen. Freedman called.

On sixth street, Madsen paired his six and Freedman bet after pairing her three. Madsen raised again with just a couple hundred behind and Freedman raised to put Madsen all in. Madsen called and hands were revealed.

Freedman peeled a 6x to end with a nine-low and Madsen turned over a Qx — eliminating him from the tournament.
