Richards Knocks Out Ortega
Level 10
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
In a heads-up pot, the flop read 
and James Richards check-called a bet of 7,000 from Eddy Ortega in the big blind.
Things heated up on the 
turn. Richards checked again and Ortega fired 13,000. Richards thought about his move for a minute and raised to 100,000, putting Ortega at risk for his last 35,000 chips. The latter called and they tabled their cards:
Eddy Ortega: 
James Richards: 
Richards had found a straight on the turn and Ortega didn't get any help with the 
river to be eliminated from the Main Event.
