Andrew Hiscox Eliminated in 6th Place ($106,920)

Andrew Hiscox - 6th Place
Andrew Hiscox - 6th Place
Andrew Hiscox raised to 125,000 and Aaron Benton reraised to 375,000. Hiscox then shoved in and Benton snapped him off, tabling {A-Diamonds} {A-Spades}. Hiscox held {7-Spades} {7-Clubs}.

"C'MON BABY!" screamed Benton, standing and turning towards his railbirds on the balcony. "COME ON!"

The flop came down {6-Diamonds} {6-Clubs} {3-Diamonds} and kept Benton ahead.

"Ace in the window. Ace in the window." Benton repeated over and over.

The turn card was the {5-Hearts} and now Hiscox picked up a straight draw, but after the {5-Spades} hit the river he was sent to the rail in 6th place.

Quietly, Hiscox shook the hands of the other players left while Benton raised his hands high above his head and yelled "YEAAAAAHHHH!" so loud that he was probably heard in Melbourne. He's now up to 4.1 million.

"When I run good, I run really good baby!" said Benton as he collected the chips.
