Rajkumar Ramakrishnan Eliminated in 4th Place (AU$400,000)

[user22113]

Hand No.137 -

Elliot Smith has the button. Rajkumar Ramakrishnan calls from under the gun and Smith calls as well. Stewart Scott calls out of the small blind, but Peter Rho raises to 280,000 from the big blind. Ramakrishnan then reraises an additional 300,000 prompting folds from Smith and Scott, only to hear Peter Rho announce that he all in. Ramakrishnan snap-calls and shows {A-Spades}

as Peter Rho shakes his head, turning over {K-Spades}

. The viewing area outside The River Room gasped when they saw the hands as Rho could only hope for a king to find the board.

The dealer spread out the flop and it comes {5-Spades}

and Peter Rho takes the lead! He appears to be the most stunned, with his hand over his mouth and shaking his head. The turn is the {3-Spades}

and Ramakrishnan pleads with the dealer, "Only two aces can you put one out?". The dealer does not oblige as the river is the {2-Spades}

. Rajkumar Ramakrishnan gets sent to the rail in fourth place.

Downstairs in the Crown Poker Room, a huge roar took place when the king hit the flop. A live feed of the final is being shown down there and this is sure to be a hand that they will be talking about for a while.

Only three players remain!
