James Crippled then Eliminated

Edward Weiss was under the gun and raised to 75,000. Ken James then moved all in from the hijack and Weiss put his tournament life at stake by calling for his 289,000 stack.

Weiss: {J-Diamonds}{J-Clubs}
James: {A-Spades}{K-Spades}

The board ran out {7-Clubs}{2-Spades}{2-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{4-Diamonds} giving Weiss a double to nearly 600,000; meanwhile, James was left with just 12,000 chips.

A few hands later, James was under the gun and called all in for 8,000. Tom Schneider raised from the cutoff to isolate and everyone else folded. James held the {7-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds} and was in big trouble against Schneider's {7-Spades}{7-Hearts}.

The board ran out {4-Clubs}{2-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}{J-Diamonds} and James was bounced from the tournament in 21st place ($13,969).
