Douglas James Eliminated by Reid Fortin, Fortin Takes Big Lead Thanks to a Flush Draw
Douglas James had two eliminations to his name, but couldn't dodge a flush draw with another big hand. James had aces and got all in on the flop against Reid Fortin. Fortin has 
and turned a flush which sent James quickly out of his chair. He took one step toward the rail, then looked back for a moment. It seemed he could barely believe what happened but he quietly accepted his fate and took 17th place.
Fortin is now the chip leader by more than 1-million.
