Flop: A 9 J♣

Hubbard moves all in for 250k

Hubbard: K 10(nut flush draw, gutshot straight draw)
O'Brien A♣ K(pair of aces)

Turn: 4♦

Hubbard whiffs and is eliminated, saying "how do I brick a big draw?"
O'Brien wins the hand with a pair of aces to take her stack to 1 million chips
Rosenblatt can't believe her two pairs would've have held if she calls

This is Hubbard's 4th Borgata final table and she's fresh off of winning a WSOP pendant, which is awarded in lieu of a ring to the Ladies Champion at a circuit event.

Stephanie Hubbard earns $1,698 for her 6th place finish.
