Live! Classic Main (Day 2): Thomas Out

Level 15 (Blinds 1,200/2,400/300)
Players Remaining: 22
Chip Average 145,000

Russell Thomas has just been eliminated after shoving over an open from Joseph Ort.  After asking for a count, Ort made his decision fairly quickly (the call was just over 50,000), and turned over his hand:

Ort: 7 7         Thomas: A Q

Flop: 3 10 4

Turn: 3

River: 8

Thomas goes out in 23rd (seven place from the money), as Joseph Ort eclipses the 200,000 mark.  Ort is another play who is in uncharted waters, as even a min cash in this tournament would surpass his career lifetime earnings.
