Baldwin Eliminates Straatmann

Level 19 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Eric Baldwin opened to 17,000 from the hijack and was called by the button. Matthew Straatmann was in the small blind and shipped all in for 78,000. Baldwin thought for a moment and then moved all in over the top. The button quickly folded and the two hands were tabled.

Eric Baldwin: {k-Clubs}{j-Clubs}
Matthew Straatmann: {a-Hearts}{7-Hearts}

The flop came {k-Hearts}{5-Spades}{2-Diamonds} and Baldwin paired his king to take the lead. The {3-Diamonds} on the turn changed nothing and the {q-Hearts} bricked off for Straatmann as well, sending him to the payout desk late on Day 2.
