Big Stax 1000 (Day 3): 9th Place - Patel ($9,559)

Level 26 - Blinds 30,000/60,000/10,000 (Players Remaining: 8)

Raj Patel (Meriden, CT)
9th Place - $9,559

We've seen a ton of pre flop all-ins, and the most popular one of the day has been the classic QQ v. AK, which would send Raj Patel home.  This time the AK couldn't find a way to win, and Josh Albin would end up sending Patel home.
