River Jam Takes it for Resurreccion

Level 2 : Blinds 100/200, 200 ante

Three players paid 900 a piece to see the {3-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{2-Clubs} flop. Robert Resurreccion checked from under the gun to Andreas Kniep in early position. He fired for 1,800. The middle position player got out of the way while Resurreccion made the call.

On the {q-Diamonds} turn, Resurreccion checked called the continuation bet of 4,100 from Kniep, leading to the {2-Spades} river. Resurreccion again checked to Kniep, who fired his biggest barrel yet, worth 13,000. Resurreccion thought for a bit before moving all in, a raise to 43,000. This sent Kniep into the tank.

"hmm wow," Kniep said, perplexed by the jam, "short day for me." Kniep would be the player at risk if he were to call. Eventually, he made the laydown, giving Resurreccion the pot. Resurreccion flashed the {q-Spades}, giving him a full house, before raking in his winnings.

On the {7-Clubs} river, the opponent led out for 9,000. Lendvai raised to 25,000. The opponent three-bet shoved, putting Lendvai at risk to make the call. He did so, and the cards were on their backs.

Tamas Lendvai: {3-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}
Opponent: {4-}{6-}
