We saw John Andress reraise to 3,600 after an undetermined open from Taylor von Kriegenbergh under the gun.
The pro decided to put the pressure back on Andress with a four-bet to 6,500. Andress took his time to make a decision, beginning one of many extended tanks during this slow burn of hand. Finally, he came along for the ride and the flop fell 
.
With his own freeze job on the flop now underway, von Kriegenbergh staring across the table for a while before leading out with a 5,300 wager. After a minute or so, Andress flatted and fourth street came 
. Both players knuckled the felt on the turn, and the 
completed the board on the river.
Another exchange of long tanks ultimate produced nothing but checks, and von Kriegenbergh asked "ace nine?" while tabling his 
. Andress answered without a word, showing his 
to claim the pot with top pair.
