Elyakim Takes On a WPT Champion
Level 4
: 100/200, 25 ante
Marvin Rettenmaier's table has just broken (in the poker sense not the literal sense) and he has been moved to Table 6. He had only just taken his seat when he opened to 500 from early position. Yakup Elyakim called from the button and Raml Khaddaj tried his luck from the big blind.
The trio shared a 
flop, Khaddaj checked, Rettenmaier made a continuation bet of 625 and only Elyakim called.
The turn saw the 
make an appearance and Rettenmaier greeted it with an uncharacteristic check. Elyakim made it a smooth 1,500 to play and the WPT World Championship winner quickly released his hand back to the dealer.
