Rettenmaier Busts to Chen

Level 16 : 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante
Marvin Rettenmaier
Marvin Rettenmaier

The ten-high board was all but rushed away while Marvin Rettenmaier was waiting for a payout runner to arrive and the chips of the German were shipped over to table neighbor Andrew Chen. Both hole cards were still visible, Rettenmaier's {A-Spades}{Q-Spades} and Chen's {A-Clubs}{K-Hearts}.

According to Chen, Rettenmaier had opened from under the gun and four-bet all in for 29 big blinds with his ace-queen suited, Chen looked him up with the superior kicker and that ended up vital to award the pot to the Canadian.
