Jim Miller Eliminated

He came into play today as one of the chip leaders but Jim Miller has been eliminated. He lost a big pot with Matt Matros earlier today and lost the rest of his chips in another big hand, this time against Nath Pizzolatto.

Nath raised to 4,800 before the flop and Miller called from the big blind. The flop came {2-Diamonds} {3-Diamonds} {8-Clubs} and Miller check-called Pizzolatto's 7,200 bet. When the {3-Spades} came on the turn Miller again checked, and this time Nath bet 13,000. Miller then raised for the last of his 58,500, and Pizzolatto took a long time deciding what to do.

He finally chose to call and it turned out to be the right choice, as his pocket nines had Miller's pocket sevens crushed, and when a six fell on the river Miller was out and Pizzolatto was up to 150,000.
