James Mordue - 11th Place

Matt Ross opened the pot with a raise, and James Mordue three-bet from the next seat over. When it came back to Ross, he moved all in with the big stack, and Mordue made the call all in for his tournament life.

Showdown
Ross: {8-Clubs}

{8-Clubs}

{8-Hearts}

Mordue:

{K-Clubs}

{K-Hearts}

Ross had been in this situation with pocket eights earlier today, and he managed to flop his two-outer. He would miss this flop, though, as the dealer spread it {6-Diamonds}

{6-Diamonds}

{A-Spades}

{5-Hearts}

.

Ross would not miss the turn. The {8-Diamonds}

{8-Diamonds}

peeled off, and that familiar cry, "Daaaaaa!" echoed throughout the room. The river {9-Spades}

{9-Spades}

failed to save Mordue, and he has been sent to the rail, head hanging in frustration.

Ross moves up over the million-chip mark with that timely eight on the turn.
