Niels van Alphen's Main Event run has come to an end near the end of Day 6.

In his final hand, Cylus Watson started things with a raise to 215,000 from under the gun, and when it folded to van Alphen he pushed all in for 1.12 million. It folded back to Watson who called, showing {9-Hearts}{9-Spades}. Meanwhile, van Alphen was hoping to improve his {A-Spades}{K-Spades} and survive.

The board brought nothing useful for van Alphen, however, coming {5-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{Q-Clubs}, and he's out in 30th.
