Pickering Eliminated

We were all set to follow Jamie Pickering to his new table, but he busted on one of the last hands before his table was broken. Joe Sebok started the action by raising to 2,300 from early position. One player called before Jamie Pickering reraised to 6,000 from the big blind. Sebok and the third player both called.

The flop came {7-Hearts} {8-Diamonds} {4-Clubs}. Pickering had first action and bet 12,000. That was enough to fold Sebok, but the third player called again. On the {3-Diamonds} turn, Pickering moved all in for 23,000. His opponent double-fist-pump-snap-called with the nuts, {5-Spades} {6-Spades}. That left Pickering's pocket pair, {A-Spades} {A-Clubs}, drawing dead. He is eliminated.
