After a "brutal couple of hands," Ryan Riess opened to 5,200 in the cutoff. Mike McDonald called in the big blind, the dealer fanned {6-Clubs}{6-Spades}{10-Hearts}, and both players checked.

The turn was the {a-Clubs}, McDonald checked again, and Riess fired out 6,000. McDonald check-raised to 20,000, Riess made the call, and the {2-Diamonds} completed the board.

McDonald rapped the felt, leading Riess to toss out 23,000. McDonald tank-called, then mucked when Riess showed {a-Diamonds}{q-Hearts} for aces and sixes.
