Kelly Kim Dodges Riesenberg's Quads

Kelly Kim raised to180,000 from middle position, Jason Riesenberg called from the cutoff and Peter Eastgate called from the button. The flop was {7-Hearts} {5-Clubs} {3-Diamonds}. Kim checked, Riesenberg bet 400,000, Eastgate folded and Kim called. The turn was the {7-Spades} and both players checked. The river was the {2-Diamonds}. Kim bet 600,000, and Riesenberg moved all in for an additional 980,000, sending Kim into the tank.

"Will you show if I fold?" Kim asked after thinking for nearly five minutes. Riesenberg didn't say a word.

Kim ultimately open-mucked his {Q-Clubs} {Q-Spades}. Riesenberg obliged and showed his {7-Diamonds} {7-Clubs} for quads.

Kim is down to 7.5 million while Riesenberg is up to 3.9 million.
