Jamie Baker Eliminated in 26th Place ($30,067)
Over at the feature table, Ron Fetsch came in with a raise to 600,000 on the button. With a quick flick of his wrist, Jamie Baker splashed four T-500,000 chips on top of his big blind to make it 2,250,000 to go.
Fetcsh slouched back in his chair and pondered for around 30 seconds before shoving all in. A quick call from Baker followed.
Jamie Baker: K♣K♥
Ron Fetsch: A♣A♦
It was the mother of all coolers between two of the largest stacks in the room, resulting in audible gasps from around the table. The flop came down J♦10♣3♠, bringing no help to Baker, but the Q♥ on the turn added some additional straight outs.
The river K♠, a card he originally needed, wasn't among those outs anymore as it improved Fetsch to Broadway. Baker, however, was so focused on the king coming that he jumped out of his chair and loudly celebrated.
Moments later, after his table mates pointed it out, the situation dawned on him and he solemnly left the stage to collect his payout.
