[user66118]

Scott Freeman opened with a raise to 10,500 from middle position. Action passed to Simon Ravnsbaek on the button, and he moved all in for approximately 55,000. Freeman made the instant call with {A-Spades}

{A-Spades}

{A-Diamonds}

. Ravnsbaek held {K-Diamonds}

{K-Diamonds}

{Q-Spades}

.

Ravnsbaek was drawing nearly dead on the flop when it came {5-Hearts}

{5-Hearts}

{8-Hearts}

{A-Clubs}

. Freeman's top set was unbeatable, but it got even better. To add insult to elimination, the dealer ripped off the case ace, {A-Hearts}

{A-Hearts}

on the turn. A {J-Clubs}

{J-Clubs}

on the river is the last card Ravnsbaek will see in this event; he makes his way out after getting quadded to death.
