Richard Ashby Eliminated in 7th Place (AU$150,000)

Richard Ashby - 7th Place
Richard Ashby - 7th Place
Hand No. 54 -

Zach Gruneberg has the button in Seat 1. Rajkumar Ramakrishnan is the first player into the pot with a raise to 90,000. Elliot Smith calls from the small blind before Richard Ashby moved all in from the big blind. Rajkumar asks for a count (350,000 more) and then calls. Smith cuts 350,000 chips out of his stack and then he also calls, drawing a surprised murmur from everyone in the room.

There are two live players for a three-way flop of {2-Hearts} {4-Diamonds} {2-Spades}. Smith and Ramakrishnan both check. They repeat those action on the {10-Hearts} turn and the {9-Clubs} river. Smith and Ramakrishnan show first for the side pot. Smith has unimproved {A-?} {Q-?}; Ramakrishnan has unimproved {A-Diamonds} {K-Hearts}, which is a winner. Ashby then opens his own hand. He, too, has an unimproved {A-?} {Q-?} and is eliminated in 7th place. He will collect AU$150,000.
