Boil tournament poker down to its very essence at this stage of the game, and it comes out like this: win your flips and you move on; lose your flips and you hit the cage. Alex Fitzgerald was all in before the flop for the second hand in a row. Action passed to Stefan Raffay in the small blind, who asked for a count (213,000) and then called. It was a flip, Fitzgerald's {Q-Spades}

{Q-Spades}

{J-Clubs}

against Raffay's {10-Hearts}

{10-Hearts}

{10-Diamonds}

. Fitzgerald paired his queen, {3-Diamonds}

{3-Diamonds}

{Q-Clubs}

{4-Clubs}

{7-Clubs}

{9-Hearts}

, to take down the pot and remain in the tournament.
