Rettenmaier Caught in a Picault

Level 12 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

Marvin Rettenmaier raised to 3,400 to open the pot, and Anthony Picault three-bet shoved for 39,400 total. When it came back to Rettenmaier, he'd spend a few long minutes soaking in the tank. After some time, he quietly announced the call with plenty of chips to try for the knockout.

Picault turned up {A-Spades} {Q-Clubs} and asked, "Same hand?" but the look on Rettenmaier's face indicated otherwise. He looked like he was a bit frustrated as he fumbled to flip over his cards, possibly a bit upset that he'd made the wrong decision with his {A-Hearts} {9-Spades}.

Board: {2-Hearts} {3-Clubs} {3-Diamonds} {7-Clubs} {J-Diamonds}

That's no good for the German, and having to pay out that double up drops his stack to about 164,000.
