Runner-Runner Freeroll for Ramage

Level 26 : 25,000/50,000, 5,000 ante

Galen Hall raised under the gun and Philippe Plouffe reraised to 350,000 from the hijack seat. Grayson Ramage moved all in for 1.145 million from the big blind and Hall got out of the way. Plouffe called.

Plouffe: {A-Diamonds}{K-Diamonds}
Ramage: {A-Spades}{K-Spades}

The flop came down {K-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{7-Spades} and now Ramage was on a freeroll having picked up one spade. Plouffe found no diamonds.

The turn brought the {Q-Spades} and now Plouffe had a sweat. He needed a non-spade card on the river in order to dodge this one and chop the pot with Ramage.

The river smacked the board with the {5-Spades} and Ramage hit his backdoor flush. He won the pot and doubled up to over 2.6 million. Plouffe dropped to 1.3 million.
