Jesus Walks

Team Full Tilt pro Chris "Jesus" Ferguson has just been eliminated from the tournament. Action folded around to Chris on the button and he opted to put in a raise, making it 800 to go. Chris Podlewski made the call from the small blind and saw a flop of {J-Spades} {2-Spades} {2-Diamonds}.

Podlewski led out with a bet on the flop and Ferguson made the call. The turn brought the {10-Hearts} and Podlewski put Ferguson all in for his remaining 200 in chips. Jesus called and tabled {Q-Diamonds} {3-Diamonds}; Podlewski revealed {K-Hearts} {6-Diamonds}. Another ten on the river cemented the hand for Podlewski, who raked the pot on the strength of his kicker, sending Ferguson to the rail.
