Hand #49: Steve Reitzfeld Eliminated in 7th Place ($45,000)

Hand #49  –  Tom Lee raises from the cutoff to 60,000, Andrew Frankenberger calls from the small blind, and Steve Reitzfeld calls from the big blind. The flop comes [5s4h3d], Frankenberger checks, Reitzfeld moves all in for 260,000, and Lee calls. Frankenberger folds.

Reitzfeld shows [As7s] for ace high with a gutshot straight draw, but he’s behind Lee’s [9c9d]. Reitzfeld needs to improve to stay alive.

The turn card pairs the board with the [3s], the river is the [Jd], and Tom Lee slaps his hand on the table to celebrate winning the hand. Steve Reitzfeld is eliminated on the TV bubble in seventh place.
