[user140525]

JD McNamara raised to 280,000 from the small blind, and Jeff Tebben called. The flop fell {k-Spades} {10-Spades} {8-Diamonds} , and both players checked. The turn was another king, the {k-Diamonds} , and Tebben bet out 350,000. McNamara just called to see the {7-Clubs} on the river. This time, Tebben checked, and McNamara fired 325,000. Tebben paused and asked for a count of McNamara's stack before check-raising all in. McNamara called quickly with his last 1.3 million and showed {j-Diamonds} {j-Clubs} . But his jacks were no good in the face of Tebben's {k-Clubs} {2-Spades} for trip kings. With that, McNamara was eliminated in second place, just missing his first bracelet but picking up a hefty $310,248.
