Ritchie Straightens Out Eslami

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 0 ante

Ali Eslami opened to 16,000 from early position only to have Charles Ritchie make it 44,000 from the big blind. Eslami potted, and Ritchie pushed in his final 49,000.

Eslami: {K-Clubs}{K-Hearts}
Ritchie: {Q-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}

With Ritchie in terrible shape against Eslami's kings, the dealer would spread a {6-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{8-Diamonds} board to see Ritchie snag a runner-runner straight to double to 107,000 as Eslami slips to 117,000 in chips.
