Pickering Eliminated

Level 14 : 1,200/2,400, 0 ante

Jamie Pickering — who memorably finished second to Vanessa Selbst in the $1,500 PLO event back in a 2008 — has been eliminated just shy of the final 50 here today.

Pickering's final hand began with a raise from the Aussie to 7,400, a reraise from Douglas Corning to 25,800 from a seat over, then a call by Pickering. The flop came {8-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{9-Diamonds} and Pickering pushed his last chips all in, and Corning called.

Pickering: {K-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}{J-Clubs}{10-Hearts}
Corning: {A-Hearts}{A-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}

Pickering had the mechagodzilla wrap draw to make a straight to improve against Corning's aces, but alas for Pickering the turn was the {3-Clubs} and river the {4-Diamonds} and he was eliminated.
