Ball Eliminated in Sixth Place

Scott Ball was one of the shorter stacks of the table with just 11,000 chips left in the 800/1,600-level. He was in the big blind with {Q-Clubs}{5-Spades} and decided he would call if Byron Kaverman shoved from the small blind.

"I think he's shoving extremely wide here, and he shoved six-eight earlier, so I'm definitely calling", Ball said.

Kaverman did shove with {J-Spades}{6-Clubs} and indeed Ball called.

He had the best hand, but he was unlucky with the run out of the board. The {J-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}-flop gave Kaverman a pair of jacks and that sealed the deal. Because neither the {7-Clubs} turn or the {2-Hearts} river could help Ball.

"This was not our day", was Ball's final comment before he left the table in sixth place.
