David Rheem has become a one-man wrecking machine. On a flop of {6-Diamonds}

{6-Diamonds}

{K-Diamonds}

{8-Spades}

, P.L. Haslam bet 2,500 and Rheem called. The turn {4-Clubs}

{4-Clubs}

must have looked safe to Haslam, who bet 7,500. Rheem raised enough to put Haslam all in (about 30,000 more). Haslam quickly called and tabled {6-Hearts}

{6-Hearts}

{6-Spades}

. The bad news for him was that Rheem outdrew him on the turn with {5-Hearts}

{5-Hearts}

{7-Hearts}

for an eight-high straight. There was no board pair when the river fell {7-Spades}

{7-Spades}

.

Haslam is out; Rheem has about 178,000.
