Jay Pinkussohn Crippled, Eliminated in 6th Place ($11,571)
Jay Pinkussohn pulled off a miracle earlier in the final table, when his ace jack cracked the aces of Patricia Baker, but his luck has run out and he's been eliminated. James Routos did most of the damage when he raised from the button, and Pinkussohn moved all in from the big blind. Routos called fairly quickly with 
and saw that he had Pinkussohn's 
dominated.
Any chance Pinkussohn had of pulling off another suckout basically went out the door when the flop came down 
to give Routos a set. Pinkussohn would need runner runner fours or straight cards, but the turn and river came the 
and 
.
Just a few hands later, Baker limped in from under the gun, and Pinkussohn moved all in for about 50,000. It folded back to Baker who made the call. When the cards were flipped, Pinkussohn saw that once again he was dominated.
Pinkussohn: 
Baker: 
The dealer fanned out a flop of 
that provided no help for Pinkussohn. The 
on the turn paired the board, giving Pinkussohn some outs for a chop, but the on the river didn't bring any help. Pinkussohn headed to the rail, while Baker strengthened her chip lead.
