James McManus Eliminated in 71st Place ($96,500)

James McManus - 71st Place
James McManus - 71st Place
Action folded to Andrew Rosskamm in the cutoff seat and he raised to 85,000. James McManus reraised to 222,000 from the small blind and Rosskamm made the call.

The flop came {10-Diamonds} {9-Spades} {3-Clubs} and the two got in a raising war that ended with all of McManus's chips in the center. The players showed:

McManus: {Q-Spades} {J-Clubs}
Rosskamm: {A-Clubs} {A-Hearts}

The turn fell the {2-Diamonds} and the river was the {A-Spades}. McManus missed his straight draw and was eliminated in 71st place.
