Ramdin Straight Out of Here

[user66118]

Jacobo Fernandez made it two bets from the cutoff, and Justin Smith and Victor Ramdin came along from the blinds.

Ramdin needed three cards while his opponents each took two. Ramdin bet, Fernandez raised, Smith folded, and Ramdin called all in for his last 200 chips.

He would draw one card on the next two rounds while Fernandez stood pat. With his last card still face-down, Ramdin tabled four cards: 7-5-4-3. Fernandez had a strong low made after the first draw: 7-6-5-4-2. Needing to pull a deuce to stay alive, Ramdin flipped over his final card, and the six that lay there made him a bad straight. He's headed out the door, while Fernandez is up to 61,000.

Presto! Mueller's Out

[user66118]

Greg Mueller has just been knocked out by Hung La. La was standing pat after the first draw with 9-8-6-4-3. Mueller was drawing one, and he went ahead and showed that he was working with 8-6-5-2 with plenty of chances to draw to the winner. On his last draw, Mueller squeezed out his last card.

"It's a two-dotter!" he nearly yelled. "Either a four or a five. Coinflip." After a long pinch, he shrugged and turned over a second five for a pair. Failing to make a low, Mueller is out the door with the camera crew in tow.

Fricke Falls Out

[user66118]

[Removed:321] Fathipour took a big chunk of Jimmy Fricke's chips in a heads-up pot. Both men drew one card on the first two draws, and Fricke stood pat while Fathipour drew one more card. In the end, Fathipour tabled T-8-5-4-2, and Fricke couldn't show anything better, dropping down to 3,400 chips.

On the next hand, Fricke was all in before the draw against Hung La. Both men drew two and one on the first two rounds before standing pat on the final draw. La turned over 7-6-5-4-2, and his number four was good enough to win the pot and send Fricke to the exit.
