Ruthenberg vs. Gelencser

Sebastian Ruthenberg
Sebastian Ruthenberg

We caught up to this hand with 250,000 in the pot and a board reading {Q-Spades}{A-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}. Peter Gelencser led out for 177,000 from the big blind and was called by Sebastian Ruthenberg in middle position, leading to the {3-Diamonds} river.

Gelencser kept the pressure on with a bet of 311,000, but this time Ruthenberg pushed back to the tune of one million! Gelencser tanked for awhile before tossing his hand to the muck.
