Bring Your Green Hat

"Action" Dan Harrington, who won the 1995 World Series of Poker Main Event, has been eliminated from the 2012 Main Event.

According to a player at the table, Harrington three-bet jammed over a raise on the button, and Russell Thomas (the original raiser) called. Harrington's {q-Spades}{5-Hearts} trailed Thomas' {A-Hearts}{2-Hearts}, and Action Dan was never able to catch up.
