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: {a-Diamonds}{j-Spades}
Tyler Rueger: {a-Spades}{q-Diamonds}

Rueger was in good shape when the {a-Hearts}{6-Spades}{9-Spades} hit the flop. The {3-Diamonds} turn and {4-Hearts} river didn't help Zelman, who was eliminated. Rueger added to his stack that is now one of the biggest in the room.
