Mark Teltscher Eliminated

Mark Teltscher is out, getting his not-inconsiderable stack in on a draw, and getting himself called by Justin Smith with a bigger draw.

After some preflop raising, Teltscher and Smith were the only two players to make it as far as the {10-Diamonds} {J-Clubs} {4-Hearts} flop, which Teltscher checked. Smith bet 6,250, and after a while, Teltscher announced, "All in." Smith disappeared into the tank long enough for whole interesting hands to be played out on other tables, while Teltscher chewed gum and stared vacantly into space. Call.

Teltscher: {8-Hearts} {9-Hearts} for the bottom end of the straight draw.
Smith: {K-Diamonds} {Q-Spades} for the top end.

Turn: {A-Clubs}, sealing Teltscher's fate

River: an irrelevant {Q-Diamonds}.

Smith is now well over 100,000.
