Guillaume Patry - 16th Place

It took an hour, but we have our 16th-place finisher. Marty Smyth raised from early position to 32,000. Action folded to Guillaume Patry in the small blind, who reraised all in for about 65,000. Smyth peeked back at his cards, then said, "Yeah, yeah. I call, I call."

Smyth opened double-suited jacks, {J-Hearts}

{J-Hearts}

{J-Spades}

{7-Spades}

{2-Hearts}

. Patry showed {A-Clubs}

{A-Clubs}

{J-Clubs}

{10-Diamonds}

{3-Hearts}

. Neither player could make anything out of a board of {5-Diamonds}

{5-Diamonds}

{8-Clubs}

{2-Diamonds}

{Q-Diamonds}

{K-Hearts}

, so Smyth's unimproved jacks were the winner

Patry will collect $35,814 in prize money.
