Rheem Takes His Chips Back

Chino Rheem raised to 2,200 from middle position and got re-raised to 7,600 by the player that forced him to lay down ace-king a few hands earlier.

Rheem made the call and both players checked through the turn on a board of {2-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}. When the {9-Clubs} fell on the river, Rheem led for 16,000 and got the call. He showed {9-Hearts}{9-Diamonds} for trips and took the pot, lifting his stack to 137,000.
