Timmi Derosa Eliminated in 3rd Place ($74,389)

Timmi Derosa - 3rd place
Timmi Derosa - 3rd place

Sidsel Boesen folded from the button, and Timmi Derosa completed from the small blind. Vanessa Hellebuyck then raised to 100,000 from the big blind, and Derosa made the call.

The flop came {5-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}. Derosa bet 100,000, and Hellebuyck called.

The turn was the {6-Hearts}, and this time Derosa announced she was all in for her remaining 651,000. A big moment, and big decision for Hellebuyck, who had Derosa well covered, though to lose the hand would change the complexion of this final table considerably.

While Derosa looked down silently at the felt, Hellebuyck sat back and exhaled. Finally -- after three solid minutes in the tank -- she very quietly leaned forward and said "I call."

The crowd erupted at that decision, then became even louder when the cards were revealed. Hellebruck had {7-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds} for sixes, a flush draw, and gutshot. Then Derosa tabled her cards -- {Q-Hearts}{J-Hearts}!

A big move, and a big call. The dealer burned a card and dealt the river -- the {4-Hearts}. Derosa is out in third, and we're now getting ready for heads-up play!
