Riess Out

Level 10 : 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

A player open-limped in early position and Ryan Riess raised to 20,000 from middle position, which constituted most of his remaining stack. Action folded around to the player on the button, who re-raised to 40,000. Everyone else folded back around to Riess, who called off to put himself at risk.

Riess: {a-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}
Button: {10-Clubs}{10-Spades}

It was a race, but the {9-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{9-Clubs} flop left Riess drawing to runner-runner. The {7-Hearts} left Riess drawing dead and a meaningless {4-Hearts} completed the board, eliminating Riess from Day 1b.
