Rueger Chips Up Big, Stacks Opponent
Level 4
: 300/500, 500 ante
An early position player opened to 1,200 and saw two callers, including Tyler Rueger on the button. Michael Zelman three-bet from the big blind to 6,500.
Action folded all the way back to Rueger on the button who back-raised four-bet to 17,000. Zelman thought for a bit and announced, "all in," a bet of 48,500.
After getting a count, Rueger made the call.
Michael Zelman: 
Tyler Rueger: 
Rueger was in good shape when the 
hit the flop. The 
turn and 
river didn't help Zelman, who was eliminated. Rueger added to his stack that is now one of the biggest in the room.
