Hristos Tsironis moved all in under the gun for 64,000, Nicole Diaz called from middle position, and Robert Vincent thought for a while before he called from the big blind.

The flop came 6c5s2s, Vincent moved all in for 20,000, and Diaz called. These were their cards in descending order of chip counts:

Nicole Diaz:  AhKd  (ace high)
Robert Vincent:  QsQh  (pair of queens)
Hristos Tsironis:  Jc9c  (jack high)

The turn card was the 9d, the river card was the 4s, and the pocket queens held up for Vincent to scoop the entire pot, doubling thru Diaz and eliminating Tsironis in eighth place.

Robert Vincent  –  247,000  (25 bb)
Nicole Diaz  –  110,000  (11 bb)
Hristos Tsironis  –  Eliminated in 8th Place  ($580)

With seven players remaining, the average chip stack is about 217,000 (22 big blinds). The next player to bust will earn $678.
