No Low Road for Ritzie
Big O
After Robert Galbraith and Joseph Ritzie limped from middle position, Carlos Sanchez raised the pot to 85,000.
Steven Liu, who was on the button, and Ritzie called. Galbraith checked out.
As soon as the flop hit 4♣3♦K♠, Ritzie shoved all in with 245,000. Sanchez did the same with less. Liu made the call.
Joseph Ritzie: A♣Q♦6♠5♥2♠
Carlos Sanchez: A♥J♣7♣6♥3♠
Steven Liu: A♠10♣5♦2♣2♦
Ritzie had to be feeling pretty good about his low and straight draws with ace-deuce-five-six to fight off being counterfeited. Unfortunately for him, in the J♥4♥ runout, the low didn't get there, and neither did any straight.
Sanchez scooped the pot with only jacks and fours, and Liu claimed the overage on a side pot to send Ritzie home with his deuces and fours.
