Mike Eise raised to 300,000 from the button and Rico Ramirez made the call from the big blind.

The flop fell down {K-Clubs}{J-Hearts}{J-Clubs} and both players checked the see the {9-Diamonds} fall on the turn. Ramirez lead out for 725,000 only to have Eise move all in. Ramirez called and the cards were tabled.

Ramirez: {J-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}
Eise: {9-Clubs}{9-Hearts}

With Ramirez needing to improve to a full house to stay alive, the {10-Hearts} on the river would be not what he was looking for, and consequently headed to the rail in 3rd place for a $261,963 payday.
