Riseng More Than Doubles Up

Level 3 : 100/200, 25 ante

With three players active, the board was reading {A-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{8-Spades}{9-Clubs} and Martin Riseng had checked. Aymon Hata bet 4,500 and the third player in the hand, Elie El Feghali, got the clock called on him before calling the 4,500.

Riseng took around twenty seconds before check-raising to 11,000. Hata folded and El Feghali quickly called. On the {10-Diamonds} river, Riseng shoved 16,950 and El Feghali called after thinking another minute.

Riseng showed {Q-Clubs}{10-Clubs} for the second nuts and El Feghali snap-mucked his hand face-down. Per PokerStars Championship rules (or basically, in any poker tournament), El Feghali was forced to show and {A-Hearts}{5-Clubs} was revealed.
