Tino Lechich Eliminated

Lechich = Busto
Lechich = Busto
With five players seeing the flop of {A-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{9-Spades} Tim Duckworth leads out with a bet of 1,900. Tino Lechich makes the call, while the button and blinds reluctantly fold to Duckworth's aggression.

Before the turn card is flipped, Duckworth casually tosses a yellow 5,000 denomination chip into the pot in the dark, which is virtually enough to put Lechich all in. The turn is the {2-Spades} and Lechich goes into the tank before the clock is called. Eventually Lechich shoves his chips into the middle and the cards are revealed:

Duckworth: {A-Clubs}{9-Clubs}
Lechich: {A-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}

Lechich needed to hit his gutshot to survive but the {10-Clubs} on the river sends him to the rail as Duckworth increases his stack to in excess of 80,000 chips!
