Jean-Philippe Piquette Eliminated in 3rd Place (�12,034)
Level 18
: 12,000/12,000, 0 ante
Canada's Jean-Philippe Piquette entered the official final table with the second highest stack, but was unable to get things after the dinner break to become the latest player eliminated mostly at the hands of Russia's Alexandra Usoltseva.
Piquette won �12,034 to add to his over $350,000 in career tournament earnings. His two biggest tournament wins came in May 2012 when he first won the 2012 Playground Poker Classic Deepstack for C$50,000 ($50,858) before winning the High Roller a week later for the same amount.
Alexandra Usoltseva currently has the upper hand to collect the coveted championship belt with a two to one heads-up advantage over Roman Pavliuk
