Rheem Building up Steam

Level 15 : Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Action was checked three ways on a board of 6♦6♠7♣ and a 5♣ fell on the turn.

A player in late middle position bet 13,000 and was raised by Chino Rheem on his immediate left, who made it 40,000 to go.

The small blind folded and mid position called. The river fell a 9♣ and action was checked round. Rheem showed 9♥10♥ and took the hand, facing 2♥2♣.

Meanwhile, on a nearby table, a huge pot was building. On a board of 10♣J♥2♥J♠K♦, Hao Zhou showed J♠2♠ for a full house — and raked in over 600,000 in chips.
