Martin Ruemenapp Eliminated in 3rd Place ($21,747)
Martin Ruemenapp raised to 150,000 from the small blind and was called by Dennis Jones who defended his big blind. The flop came and Ruemenapp made a bet of 250,000. Jones raised to 650,000, sending Ruemenapp into the tank.
Ruemenapp three-bet all in after over a minute of deep thought and was quickly called by Jones, much to his discontent.

Dennis Jones:
"Oh no, give me a five," he pleaded with the dealer, realizing he was two cards away from elimination. Two cards became zero as the turn fell to give Jones kings up, leaving Ruemenapp drawing dead for the river to become the third-place finisher in the tournament.
