Dan Harrington Eliminated

'Action' Dan Harrington has just been eliminated from the main event in 24th place by Rony Jazzar.

Harrington opened the pot with a raise to 16,000 from early position and action folded around to Antony Lellouche who three-bet to 41,000. A few more folds left the decision to Jazzar, who made the call from the big blind. Harrington then moved all in for an additional 161,000 and Jazzar made the call tabling a pocket pair of kings. Harrington tabled pocket tens and needed help, but none came as the board filled out {2-Hearts}{3-Spades}{4-Clubs}{K-Spades}{8-Diamonds} giving Jazzar top set for the win.

Harrington exited the tournament room to a round of applause from his opponents, while Jazzar stacked up a whopping 650,000 in chips.
