Hand #93: Tony George Eliminated in 3rd Place ($218,329)

Hand #93 - (No-Limit) Greg 'FBT' Mueller has the button in seat 5. He raises to 120,000, George moves all in, and Mueller immediately calls with {A-Hearts}{K-Spades}. George shows {5-Clubs}{5-Spades}, and it's a race situation. George is facing elimination if his pocket pair doesn't hold up.

The flop comes {J-Hearts}{10-Spades}{8-Clubs}, and Mueller picks up a straight draw to go with his overcards. The turn card is the {6-Clubs}, and and George has to avoid ten cards to double up.

The river card is the {Q-Diamonds}, and Mueller rivers a Broadway straight. He runs over to his friends in the bleachers who mob him with high fives. He quickly walks over to Tony George to shake his hand, but his friends start chanting "FBT! FBT! FBT!"

Tony George is eliminated in 3rd place, earning $218,329.
