Hand #108: Cary Katz Eliminated on the Money Bubble in 6th Place

Level 16: 15,000-30,000, 4,000 ante

Hand #108 - Action folds around to Vivek Rajkumar in the small blind and he moves all-in.  Cary Katz is in the big blind and calls all-in for his last 300,000 or so.

Katz turns over AspadeQspade and Rajkumar shows Kspade2diamond.

The 10heart8heart4club flop changes nothing and the 5heart on the turn is no help to Rajkumar either.  The river is the 2heart and Katz jumps in his seat a little when he sees that Rajkumar paired up on the river to eliminate Katz on the bubble in sixth place.

Vivek Rajkumar - 4,780,000 (199 BBs)
Cary Katz - eliminated in sixth place ($0)

The remaining five players are now guaranteed at least $224,160.
