Rettenmaier Doubles Back

Level 10 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

Samy Zakhary limped preflop for 1,000 and it was passed to Marvin Rettenmaier on the button who moved all in for 15,600. It was folded back to Zakhary.

Zakhary, "I'll call, I've only looked at one..."

Rettenmaier protested, "Wait, wait, wait. Don't call, I have a bad hand...Just don't have a jack or a nine or any other card..."

Zakhary flipped {A-Clubs}{J-Hearts} and Rettenmaier winced turning over {J-Spades}{9-Hearts}. The board however had other ideas, coming{Q-Spades}{5-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}{7-Clubs} and Rettenmaier was back from the brink once more.
