Stanley Statkiewicz Eliminated in 3rd ($88,062)

Vanessa Selbst raised to 60,000 from the button/under the gun, Stanley Statkiewicz called her from the small blind, and Jamie Pickering folded.

The flop came out a tantalizing {10-Spades}{8-Spades}{J-Spades}. Selbst bet 90,000. Statkiewicz counted out chips, then asked how much was in the pot. Once it was determined that the pot was big enough for him to raise all in, he did so. When Selbst quickly called, Statkiewicz did not look pleased.

Statkiewicz: {8-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{A-Spades}
Selbst: {A-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{4-Spades}{5-Clubs}

Statkiewicz had two pair, but Selbst had flopped the flush. The turn was the {K-Spades} and the river the {2-Hearts}, and Statkiewicz was out in third.

We'll get you updated chip counts going into heads up play in a moment.
