Ramdin on a Free Ride to Nowhere

Level 7 : 150/300, 25 ante

From the button Victor Ramdin raised to 650. He was called by both players in the blinds.

The flop cam down {A-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{6-Hearts} and action checked to Ramdin who fired off a bet of 775. The player in the small blind check raised to 1,700 and after the big blind folded Ramdin instantly moved all in. Even quicker than Ramdin could go all in the player in the small blind called creating a monster pot.

Ramdin: {A-Hearts}{Q-Hearts}
Small Blind: {A-Spades}{Q-Clubs}

"I couldn't ask for a better flop than that!" Ramdin said seeing the hands.

Ramdin was on a freeroll to a heart flush and he just needed to catch one to double up from the player in the small blind with a bigger stack. The turn {8-Diamonds} didn't give Ramdin the heart he needed for the scoop, and neither did the river {9-Diamonds}.

"Ahhhh come on," Ramdin bemoaned after the river came out. "That's not fair."

Either way, Ramdin still has a healthy stack here on Day 1 and looks to increase it as we near the end of the night.
