"August $150,000" (Flight 1E): Christensen Does It Again, Leaves Garricks Short

"August $150,000 GTD"
$360 No Limit Hold'em (Re-Entry)
Level 15 (Blinds 1,500/3,000/500)
Total Flight 1E Entries: 92
Flight 1E Players Remaining: 15

With action folding around to Erik Christensen at Table 1, he would open to 7,000 from the cutoff.  Ronnie Korman called from the button, and after the small blind folded, Dolphy Garricks shoved 107,200 from the big blind.  Christensen lifted up from his chair, before putting his chips together, and calling for less (93,200).  

Ronnie Korman took some time with his decision, but eventually talked himself into a fold.  When the hands were tabled, it would be Garricks' K♣ 10♣, up against the A♠ A of Christensen.  The 6♣ 3♣ 9♠ Q 3♠ would give Erik the full sweat, but Dolphy couldn't hit any of his outs on the turn or river.  Garricks was left with just over 13,000, with Christensen doubling once again, this time to 199,000.
