Maloney Eliminated by Meeks

Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Cliff Maloney was in middle position and ended up getting his chips in against Jacob Meeks in the small blind.

Cliff Maloney: {a-Hearts}{q-Hearts}
Jacob Meeks: {q-Spades}{q-Clubs}

The {j-Spades}{7-Diamonds}{2-Hearts} flop gave Maloney backdoor draws, and he was calling for a heart after the {j-Hearts} turn hit the felt, but the {2-Clubs} completed the board to keep Meeks' ladies in front.

A count by the dealer showed Meeks had 1,015,000 chips and just barely covered his opponent's 1,010,000 chips, sending Maloney to the payout desk.
