Rettenmaier Gets Two Streets

Marvin Rettenmaier made it 105,000 from the cutoff and Joseph El Khoury defended his big blind to see an {A-Clubs}{2-Spades}{J-Spades} board which both players checked.

The {6-Spades} on the turn was also checked by El Khoury but the German showed no such caution, he slid out a bet of 90,000 and El Khoury made the call to see the {5-Diamonds} river.

El Khoury checked a third time and Rettenmaier made a bet of 135,000 and was again called. Rettenmaier showed {A-Spades}{3-Clubs} and El Khoury mucked, the German's pot-controlling flop check gaining him two streets of value.
