Riordan Gets Paid by Chiesa

Level 6 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

With around 240,000 already in the pot on a board of A9K9, John Riordan bet 75,000 from the small blind and Dominick Chiesa called in early position.

The river came the 9 and Riordan, almost completely covering his face with his hoodie, tanked for nearly 90 seconds and used up two time banks before emerging with a bet of 125,000.

Now it was Chiesa's turn to tank as he also used two time banks. He eventually called and Riordan turned over AA63 for a full house to take down the massive pot.

Jeremy Ausmus had to reenter earlier and took his seat at this table, now on his second bullet.
