At 4,000/8,000 blinds, James Campbell opened to 20,000 under the gun and was called by Ross Mallor in middle position and one other player. James bet 33,000 on the [6s][6h][5s] flop, and Ross moved all in for 165,000. Action folded back to James, who took off his headphones to evaluate the situation. He eventually called, tabling [Js][Jd] which was behind Ross's [Ad][Ac]. The [Qs] gave James a backdoor flush draw to go with his preexisting two outs, and the [7s] fell to complete that flush. Ross came around the table to get a better look at the board, not believing he was eliminated in 9th place. James could only offer him the conciliation, "Sorry, I'm the worst." Ross will earn $5,739 for his efforts.
