Ray Henson Eliminated in 3rd Place ($17,680)
Level 26
: Blinds 40,000/80,000, 40,000 ante
Jason Daly raised to 200,000 on the button with A♠Q♣9♣6♠ and got a call from Ray Henson in the big blind with J♠8♠8♥7♠.
Henson hit a dream flop of 8♦5♣2♠, giving him top set. He led out for 320,000 and Daly chose to make a move, raising all in for 870,000 effective.
Henson of course called, and Daly would need some very dramatic help to avoid doubling up Henson.
The 3♦ on the turn changed nothing, leaving Daly one pull at a seven to fill his gutshot.
The dealer obliged, placing the 7♣ on the river, ending Henson's day in third place after battling throughout the final table to give himself a chance at the win.
