Fritzer Barely Survives
Level 10
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Rip Fritzer was down to just 4,500 chips and ripped all in from under the gun. He picked up three callers who went to a flop of J♠4♣2♦. Scott Aulds made a bet of 5,000 on the flop which forced out the other two players.
Rip Fritzer: K♦3♦
Scott Aulds: 3♥2♥
Aulds was doing his best impression of the "diaper" made famous by Nicholas Rigby, after flopping a pair to hold the lead.
"Diamonds!" Fritzer cheered for and he found that in the form of the 7♦ on the turn. The river was the 9♦ which completed his flush and Fritzer stayed alive, albeit still on the short stack.
