Ritburg Straightens Up

Hans Ritburg of Sweden has just doubled through Joe Serock after spiking a fateful straight to outdraw Serock's superior hand.

Ritburg was well behind when the money went in, holding A-3 against Serock's A-10, but a flop of {2-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{K-Diamonds} gave Ritburg four outs for a gut-shot straight draw, which he hit on the turn when the {5-Spades} rolled off. Unable to spike a three on the river for a tie, Serock sat motionless as the dealer pushed the pot to a rejuvenated Ritburg who now has over 30,000 in chips.
