Jason Clarke Eliminated in 3rd Place ($2,501)

Jason Clarke - 3rd Place
Jason Clarke - 3rd Place

After being crippled when his {q-}{10-} failed to hold against Cos Barillari's {j-}{10-} on a {q-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} flop (yes, it came running {j-Spades}{j-Diamonds}), Jason Clarke seemed destined to finish in third place.

Indeed he did a short time later when he got his stack all in preflop holding {k-}{j-} against the {8-}{8-} of Barillari. The pocket pair held, and an seemingly irritated Clarke, who had support from his girlfriend on the rail, was eliminated in third place.
