Rettenmaier Gets There

Under the gun, Marvin Rettenmaier opened to 29,000, and Kyle Julius made the call to see a flop.

It came an exciting {J-Hearts} {J-Clubs} {J-Spades}, and fireworks ensued. Rettenmaier fired out a continuation bet of 42,000, and Julius called to see the {7-Spades} land on fourth street. Another bet came from Rettenmaier, 101,000 this time, and Julius came right along with another call.

The river was the {A-Diamonds}, and Rettenmaier fired a third bullet 113,000 chips strong. After some quick deliberation, Julius made a covering raise to 300,000 total, and Rettenmaier made the call all in. He tabled {A-Clubs} {Q-Clubs}, and his jacks full of aces was the best hand. A frustrated Julius slid his cards into the muck, decimating his stack all the way down to 455,000 from his once lofty position.

Rettenmaier is now the one doing all the chip stacking; he's up to about 900,000 after that double.
