Raymer Recovers

After running into the pocket aces of Billy "The Croc" Argyros, Greg Raymer was back into the action on the very next hand.

With a raise to 900 and a call in front of him, Raymer squeezed to 3,500 from the button. The original raisor folded but the player in the cutoff called for the second time in the hand.

The flop landed {7-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{8-Diamonds} and both players checked. The turn was the {10-Diamonds} but Raymer didn't know it, as he stared his opponent down intently and waited for him to act first before looking at the board. He bet 5,000 and Raymer quickly made the call.

The river was the {2-Hearts} and action checked to Raymer who fired another 5,000 with his opponent making the call.

Raymer tabled {K-Spades}{J-Diamonds} for the straight to take it down as his lost chips were quickly recovered. He's back to 48,000 chips.
