James Dempsey Eliminated in 39th Place ($13,368)

Level 1 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante
James Dempsey - 39th Place
James Dempsey - 39th Place

In a battle of the blinds, WSOP gold bracelet holder James "Flushy" Dempsey found himself all in against Yasuhiro Waki in the big blind.

Dempsey: {A-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}
Waki: {A-Hearts}{J-Hearts}

With Dempsey in dominated shape, the {Q-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{3-Spades} flop gave him some backdoor chop draw, and when the {7-Spades} landed on the turn, he would need a ten to take the lead or any king, queen or three to chop.

Unfortunately for the British player, the {2-Spades} landed on the river to send him home in 39th place for a $13,368 payday as Waki climbs to 230,000 in chips.
