Joe Serock Eliminated in 3rd Place ($26,000)

From the button, Joe Ebanks raised to 28,000. The defending champion Joe Serock reraised all in from the small blind for 165,000. Action moved back to Ebanks, and he made the calling, claiming that he felt he had to.

Ebanks tabled the {3-Hearts}{3-Spades} to Serock's {Q-Spades}{10-Clubs}. The flop, turn, and river ran out {K-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{6-Spades}{9-Spades}{8-Diamonds}, and Serock was eliminated. His back-to-back title run had come short in third place, but it was still an impressive showing by the defending champ.

Ebanks and [Removed:65] are now heads up for the title.
