James Watkins Eliminated in 6th Place ($39,790)

Level 29 : 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante

Ryan Stevenson opened to 80,000 from early position. Action folded all of the way around to James Watkins in the big blind and he counted out a three-bet to 225,000. Stevenson tanked for about a minute before four-betting all in. Watkins called for his tournament life and the cards were tabled.

Watkins: {10-Hearts}{10-Spades}
Stevenson: {A-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds}

Stevenson needed help to score a knockout and got exactly that when he paired up on the {J-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{8-Hearts} flop. The {Q-Hearts} on the turn gave Watkins additional outs to make a straight, but nothing materialized as the {3-Clubs} fell on the river.

Watkins will collect $39,790 in tournament winnings for his impressive sixth place finish.
