Ramos Spikes Two Outer for Elimination
Dennys Ramos opened to 5,000 in early position, which Laurie Tournier called in the hijack before the big blind came along too.
Both the player in the big blind and Ramos checked on the 6♠6♥2♣ flop, prompting Tournier to bet 5,000. The big blind called before Ramos sprang into action with a check-raise to 18,000.
Tournier then called the raise before the big blind player raised again, making it 37,000 to go. Ramos called, but Tournier folded.
The J♣ fell on the turn, and the big blind moved all in for 55,500, and Ramos called immediately.
Opponent: 2♥2♦ 
Dennys Ramos: J♠J♦
Ramos had spiked one of his two outs on the turn to improve to a superior full house, and when the Q♥ completed the board, his opponent had vacated the table before Ramos had even pulled the chips in.
