Hand #83: Steve Paul-Ambrose Eliminated in 4th Place ($146,259)

Hand #83 - (Limit) Greg 'FBT' Mueller has the button in seat 5, Billirakis limps for 60,000 from the small blind, and Paul-Ambrose checks his option from the big blind. The flop comes {J-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}, Billirakis bets 60,000, Paul-Ambrose raises to 120,000, Billirakis reraises to 180,000, and Paul-Ambrose calls. The turn card is the {A-Hearts}, Billirakis bets 120,000, Paul-Ambrose moves all in for a little more, and Billirakis calls.

Steve Billirakis shows {A-Clubs}{A-Diamonds} for top set with the ace-high flush draw. Steve Paul-Ambrose shows {J-Spades}{8-Hearts}, and he needs to catch a nine (but not the nine of diamonds) to stay alive with a straight.

While everyone waits for ESPN to give the dealer the green light to show the river card, Greg Mueller breaks the silence by saying "I have to go to the bathroom and I'm hungry. Let's go!"

The river card is the -- {9-Diamonds}! The crowd reacts in multiple ways as Paul-Ambrose makes his straight -- but still loses to Billirakis's ace-high flush.

Steve Paul-Ambrose is eliminated in 4th place, earning $146,259.
