James Girouard Eliminated in 8th Place ($5,500)
Level 25
: Blinds 50,000/75,000, 75,000 ante
Mark Fink raised to 175,000 in the cutoff and and James Girouard three-bet jammed in the big blind for 485,000 to put himself at risk. Fink made the call.
James Girouard: A♦10♥ 
Mark Fink: A♥8♦
The flop came 7♥9♥5♠ with Fink picking up additional outs with a gutshot. The turn landed the 3♦ and Girouard was in great shape to double up.
That was until the 8♥ landed on the river, ending his impressive tournament run.
