Ruijs Busts Altman

Level 5 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

On a flop of 543 Brian Altman bet 1,300 which was called by Maria Konnikova in the cutoff, and Joris Ruijs out of the big blind.

All three players checked on the 3 turn for the Q to come on the river. Ruijs bet 2,000 and was met with a raise to 10,200 by Altman, who only had roughly 12,000 behind. Konnikova got out of the way, but Ruijs raised enough to put Altman all in. Altman thought it over for a minute before flicking in the call.

Ruijs flipped over 53 for a full house. Altman couldn't beat that as he had 77 and was sent to the rail.
