Michel Molenaar Eliminated in 6th Place ($84,730)
Level 34
: Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante
After a consequential loss to Cary Katz, Michel Molenaar was left with crumbs to work with after coming back from break. It didn't take long for Molenaar to get his chips in when he jammed for his final 250,000, which was not enough to cover the big blind. Katz came along with a limp from the button, and Preston McEwen checked his option out of the big blind with Molenaar at risk.
Katz and McEwen checked down the entire board of 4♣9♣6♦8♥4♥ to send all three to a showdown.
Molenaar showed A♣2♥, Katz showed A♠7♠, while McEwen tabled the winner as he revealed 6♥3♦ for a pair of sixes, which was enough to take down the pot and send Molenaar to the exit.
Molenaar earned $84,730 for his sixth-place finish.
