Riffel Wakes Up With a Monster to Triple
Level 21
: 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Tom Fehr raised to 75,000 in the hijack before Jacob Long moved all in for 525,000 in the cutoff. Matthew Riffel called for 300,000 in the big blind. "Let's boogie," Fehr said as he also called.
Matthew Riffel: K♠K♣
Jacob Long: Q♥Q♦
Tom Fehr: A♠Q♠
"There is one queen still left in the deck. Nobody tell me if they folded one," Long said optimistically. The board came 10♦6♠4♣J♥ and Fehr picked up a straight draw going to the river with a chance for a double knockout, but Riffel held on through the 2♥ to triple up. Long took the side pot off Fehr.
