Pietsch in Contention

Christine Pietsch: (XX) / 
Richard Ashby: (XX) / 
CHristine Pietsch bet out with a pair of queens on fifth street, and it was enough to make Richard Ashby fold his pair of threes.
It was just a small pot, but worthy of note because Pietsch has been slowly creeping up in the chip counts and after that pot she was up to 550,000 - within 50,000 of the chip lead. The next-biggest stack at the table is Richard Ashby, who was at 218,000 after the hand.
