Steve Billirakis Eliminated in 3rd Place ($152,788)
Steve Billirakis was first crippled in a clash with Brandon Adams before Men Nguyen finished him off.
After a raise and a re-raise on third, Billirakis fired on fourth before Adams bet on fifth, sixth and the river. Billirakis said he was chasing hearts as he folded the river and Adams showed two pair.

That hand left Billirakis with just 120,000 in chips which he committed on third street on the very next hand against Men Nguyen.

Billirakis improved to two pair but it wasn't enough as Nguyen made trip sevens to take it down. Billirakis departs in 3rd place for a collect of $152,788.
