Reategui is Ratatouille

Strolling the floor I ran into Irish Open champ Neil Channing, who told me that the gentleman who had previously been seated next to him, serial WPT casher and WSOP bracelet winner Anthony Reategui, had busted out in a 30k pot, holding 5-6 on a Q-5-6 flop but finding himself up against a set of Queens. Apparently he'd been all over the place, chip-wise - apparently up to 250,000 (most likely a lie from Mr Channing, but in any case he'd been a real contender at one point) and back down to 9,000, and then OUT. It's a cruel game.
