Jason James Eliminated in 3rd Place ($179,593)
Level 35
: Blinds 250,000/500,000, 500,000 ante
Jason James moved all in on the button, with Diego Ventura snap-calling in the big blind.
Jason James: 9♣8♣
Diego Ventura: Q♣Q♦
James was well behind to start the hand, but did pick up outs despite Ventura hitting a set on the 2♥Q♥J♠ flop.
"We need a ten" James told his rail, but the 5♣ turn and 7♠ river were no help as his run ended in third place.
