Minneapolis Jim Meehan Eliminated

On a flop of {10-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{4-Clubs}, one player moved all in for 2700. Minneapolis Jim Meehan took almost five minutes to decide what to do. He stood up several times and examined the flop.

"That's two clubs and one heart, right?" he asked the dealer. "I want to make sure. I'm surrounded by 3,000 monkeys."

"Are you calling us monkeys?" asked his opponent.

"No. Not you guys. You're all world champions. I'm talking about the rest of the idiots!" he replied.

He apologized for the delay to the rest of his table.

"I'm lost in this hand," he said. "I just keeping thinking the {9-Clubs} is the {6-Clubs}."

His opponent called a clock on him and Meehan eventually called. Meehan flipped over {K-Clubs}{2-Clubs} while his opponent showed {J-Clubs}{8-Clubs}. The turn was the {Q-Spades} and his opponent took over the lead with a straight. Meehan still had outs for a flush but missed when the {4-Diamonds} fell on the river.

Meehan mumbled an F-bomb while he headed to the rail and said, "See all you (bleeping) guys at the Resurrection."
