Wrong Way Rheem

Under the gun, Chino Rheem raised to 250. He found three calls including the small blind, and the four players went off to a flop.

It came {9-Spades} {2-Spades} {4-Diamonds}, and Rheem continued out with a 650-chip bet. This time he found just two callers as the small blind check-folded, and it was three-handed to the {6-Spades} turn. Chino checked this time, and the player in middle position bet 900. The next player called before Rheem snuck in a check-raise to 3,000 straight. Both of his opponents called.

That brought them to the {7-Diamonds} river, and Chino fired out 4,400. That folded one player, but the last opponent made the call to see a showdown.

Chino knocked the table in that surrendering way, and his opponent showed him {4-Spades} {4-Hearts} for the set of fours. It was easily good from the looks of it; Chino mucked his hand, and he's down to 22,100 early.
