Jeff Trudeau Eliminated in 2nd Place ($37,277)
Level 24
: 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Six-time WSOP Circuit ring winner Jeff Trudeau made a little headway in the heads-up match but his comeback just came up short in a big hand.
It began when Trudeau raised the button to 75,000 and Javier defended to see a 
flop. Javier led out for 60,000, Trudeau called, and the 
appeared on the turn.
Javier bet again, this time 180,000, and Trudeau called to see the 
river. Javier bet for the third time making it 740,000 and then snap-called when Trudeau jammed for what looked like 1.5 million.
Kevin Javier: 
Jeff Trudeau: 
Javier had the flush that Trudeau looked to be representing and locked up his first major title. Trudeau exited in second place for $37,277.
