Blieden Ends Rezaei's Run
Still running a hand from the previous level, Thomas Boivin opened to 40,000 from under the gun. Dennis Blieden was next to act and just called. Daniel Rezaei stuck in a three-bet to 225,000 from the big blind which got Boivin to fold. Blieden snap-shoved all in and Rezaei had a decision for the rest of his chips.
Rezaei asked for a count but Bleiden wasn't happy about it when Rezaei clearly had the shorter of the two stacks, sitting on about 1,200,000. The clock was paused anyway and a full count was given before Rezaei flicked in a call.
Dennis Bleiden: 
Daniel Rezaei: 
The flop came 
and Bleiden was still in a dominating position with the better kicker. The 
on the turn paired the board and the 
on the river ensured Bleiden of the best hand. Rezaei sent over the rest of his chips before heading to the payout desk.
