Alati Ousted by Baldwin's Rivered Straight
Level 17
: Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Richard Alati was all in for about 44,000 in the big blind and at risk against Eric Baldwin in the small blind.
Richard Alati: K♠J♥
Eric Baldwin: 5♠3♠
The Q♣7♣6♣ flop left Alati needing to fade additional outs, as did the 9♦ turn, and the 4♣ spiked the river to give Baldwin a seven-high straight to eliminate Alati a few spots off the money.
