Andy Echele Eliminated in 6th Place ($24,872)

Level 26 : 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Andy Echele - 6th Place
Andy Echele - 6th Place

Andy Echele limped in under the gun for 50,000 as did Keith Heine to his left. Action folded to Bill Byrnes in the small blind who called and Stephen Green checked his option.

Both Byrnes and Green checked the {6-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}{6-Hearts} flop and Echele fired out 250,000. Heine called while the other two players folded.

Fireworks happened after the {7-Diamonds} came on the turn as Echele fired out 500,000 and was raised all in by Heine. Echele called only to find out he was far behind.

Echele: {a-Clubs}{a-Hearts}
Heine: {6-Clubs}{7-Clubs}

Heine had turned a full house and Echele's tournament life was in desperate need of an ace on the river. It didn't happen though as instead it came the {5-Spades} ending Echele's run in sixth place.
