Steve Billirakis Eliminated in 12th Place ($34,151)

Steve Billirakis - 12th Place
Steve Billirakis - 12th Place
Steve "MrSmokey" Billirakis raised under the gun, and Sam Stein defended his big blind. The flop came {J-Clubs} {6-Hearts} {4-Clubs}, and Stein checked to Billirakis. Steve bet 155,000, and Stein raised him to 530k. Oh boy. Spectators crowded around the table to watch the confrontation. Billirakis moved all in for over a million more. Snap call from Stein.

Showdown
Billirakis: {Q-Spades} {Q-Hearts}
Stein: {4-Hearts} {4-Spades}

Stein was way out in front with his flopped set, and Billirakis needed a queen and only a queen to stay alive. The turn was the {7-Clubs} and the river the {8-Clubs}, eliminating Billirakis in 12th place and weighing down Stein's corner of the felt with even more chips. He's close to 7 million now.
