Spin Ends Next Hand: Kahle Burns Eliminated in 6th ($252,000)

Kahle Burns was unsurprisingly all-in again right after his double, this time moving 340,000 (under six big blinds) all in from the hijack when it folded to him with [Ac3s].  Big blind Adrian Mateos took him on with the dominating [AsJd].  Burns flopped a pair of threes, but Mateos hit
