Rettenmaier's Straight Stays Good
Joseph El Khoury opened to 100,000 and Marvin Rettenmaier defended in the big blind. Both players checked a wet flop of 
before Rettenmaier led for 155,000 on the 
turn.
El Khoury, who can be hard to push off a hand, made the call to see the 
river. Rettenmaier thought for a minute and checked and El Khoury quickly checked behind.
The German showed 
for the turned straight and it was enough to beat El Khoury, the latter is starting to get short again.
