Riise Falls Near the End of Day 1a
Level 14
: 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
John Arne Riise raised to 8,000 on the button and was called by Joao Vitor and Leonardo Boen in the blinds. The flop came A♠7♥6♣ and the action checked around to the 5♦ on the turn.
Vitor led out with a bet of 5,000 which Boen just called. Riise raised to 15,000 and both of his opponents called. The river brought the 10♦ and Vitor checked. Boen put together a bet of 30,000 and Riise jammed all in for around 65,000. Vitor quickly folded and Boen called just as fast.
Riise turned over 7♠7♦ for a set of sevens but Boen turned a straight with 8♣4♠ to eliminate Riise near the end of Day 1a.
