Tino Lechich Gutted

Tino Lechich Eliminated
Tino Lechich Eliminated
Jon Turner opened the action with a raise to 21,000 from middle position, with T6 Poker pro Tino Lechich calling in position and Felix Osterland calling from the big blind.

The three players took a flop of {5-Hearts}{6-Spades}{8-Spades} and the action passed to Lechich who led out with a bet of 40,000. Osterland made the call and Turner stepped aside.

The turn brought the {7-Diamonds} and Osterland checked once again to Lechich who moved all in for his last 145,000 chips. Osterland snap-called and tabled {10-Hearts}{9-Diamonds} for a turned gutshot straight for the stone-cold nuts. Lechich cringed as he flipped {9-Clubs}{9-Hearts} for a smaller straight.

The river was the {A-Diamonds} and Lechich is eliminated in devastating fashion as Osterland moves to 600,000 chips.
