Greg "FBT" Mueller Eliminated

A middle position player raised to 600 and Greg "FBT" Mueller pushed for his last 2,150 from the cutoff. Jimmy Fricke cold-called from the small blind and the initial raiser passed. The players showed:

Mueller: {A-Clubs} {10-Clubs}
Fricke: {A-Diamonds} {K-Diamonds}

The flop came {10-Hearts} {K-Spades} {K-Hearts} giving Fricke a stranglehold on the hand. Mueller thought he caught up when he saw the ten in the window, but the two kings behind it soured his mood quickly. The turn and river came the {7-Diamonds} and {6-Hearts} respectively and Mueller was sent packing.
