The dream is over

Tiffany Michelle had a chance to be the first woman to win the World Series of Poker mian event, and perhaps the yougest player to win it. But it wasn't to be. She was eliminated in 17th place.
She was in 4th place to start the day but quickly dwindled to the bottom half of the field continuing to see flops and play aggresive poker. But today the rest of the players were kind of tight, and so when they had hands they tended to go all in. Michelle lost quite a few chips this way, raising then folding to all-in bets.
Her final hand she held AJ with an ace on the board. She went all in and her opponent held pocket rockets.
Brandon Cantu had been eliminated earlier in the day, leaving me with just Joe Bishop and David Rheem as the two players I had predicted to make the final table still alive. Strange though, right now Bishop is the leader at over 15 million chips while Rheem is hoping to hold on at just under 2 million.
I am happy to report that Ylon Schwartz indeed found a good spot to double up early in the day and is near the top of the leaderboard. He's gonna be deadly. But right now there's still 16 players left and we still are waiting to see who all comes back in Novemeber.
Just an FYI the best a woman has ever finished is fifth.
