Michaelann Moser Eliminated, Bubble Bursts

With her stack dwindling by the orbit, as the inexorable toll of blinds and antes whittled her down to just 4 big blinds, Michaelann Moser made her stand with an open-jam from the hijack.
Her last 22,500 went into the middle on the strength of an ace, but Moser's 
was in bad shape when Jim Boyd looked her up with 
. Although the most likely scenario in this spot was a chopped pot, Moser knew the sight of a six on board would spell disaster.
Flop: 
Moser winced when the flop paired Boyd's hand and not her own, and while the 
turn was the best card in the deck for her (giving her outs to the remaining fours in the deck, as well as spade flush possibilities), the river card came 
to give both players two pair.
Showing the generosity of true gentlemen, the remaining seven players immediately ponied up $200 each in cash or chips, providing Moser with a parting gift to ease the pain of bubbling.
Boyd, meanwhile, continued his volatile ride, as his chip stack has fluctuated wildly during the last level.
