Eric Drache

With one pot, Eric Drache has moved from 500,000 in chips to more than 1 million. All three players were in for a bet on third street after Freddie Ellis completed his {A-Diamonds}

{A-Diamonds}

. Ellis bet the whole way, with Ville Wahlbeck dropping out at fifth street.

Drache called each street. On the river, Ellis bet one last time with (X-X) / {A-Diamonds}

{A-Diamonds}

{2-Hearts}

{Q-Spades}

{K-Hearts}

/ (X). Drache squeezed hard, then raised all in for 85,000 total. Ellis called to see Drache show down hole cards of {2-Diamonds}

{2-Diamonds}

{5-Hearts}

{4-Clubs}

that matched a board of {4-Diamonds}

{4-Diamonds}

{A-Spades}

{6-Clubs}

{3-Clubs}

to create a six-high straight. Ellis flashed kings up and mucked.
