OtB_RedBaron Eliminated and Re-entered

Level 7 : 125/250, 40 ante

We just saw our first elimination of the day, as OtB_RedBaron lost in a flush over flush situation. But the Belgian wasn't completely gone, because he re-entered right away.

It all happened in a blind battle between him and Christoph "26071985" Vogelsang. OtB_RedBaron put in a 4-bet preflop to 3,360 and was called by big blind Vogelsang.

Both checked the {6-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds} flop and the {2-Diamonds} turn. The action came on the river when the {K-Spades} was dealt. OtB_RedBaron put in a bet of 5,572 with only 14,772 behind. Vogelsang wasted little time and shoved all in. His Belgian opponent tanked for several minutes before he elected to call.

Vogelsang showed {a-Diamonds}{10-Spades} for an ace-high flush which bested OtB_RedBaron's {a-Clubs}{j-Diamonds} for a worse flush. The Belgian was sent to the virtual rail for only a couple of seconds before he put in another $102,000 as he re-entered this Super High Roller.
