Level 24

Ante: 20000
Low Card: 20000
Completion: 80000
Limits: 80000-160000

Chino Rheem: Q♥2♣ / Q♠7♣K♠7♥ / J♣
Nick Guagenti: 6♠4♦ / 4♣10♦6♥10♥ / 5x

Chino Rheem completed and Nick Guagenti called. The latter then called a bet on fourth street.

On fifth street, Rheem bet and Guagenti raised.

"You have sixes and fours Nicholas?" asked Rheem as he called.

Both players made open pairs on sixth street, with Guagenti's tens giving him the higher board. Guagenti bet and Rheem called. Seventh then checked through to showdown.

"Too good," said Guagenti as he tabled his hand. Rheem was right in that Guagenti had sixes and fours, which turned into tens and sixes. However, Rheem had queens and sevens to take the pot.

"You gotta bet your own hand my friend," replied Rheem.

"I am breathless by how good you are playing," joked Guagenti. "Do they serve oxygen here?"

Chino Rheem: XxXx / K♥4♦4♠9♣ - folded on sixth street
Nick Guagenti: A♥A♦ / K♦5♥7♦9♥

Both players had kings for upcards, but Guagenti had the inferior suit and brought in. Rheem called. Both players checked on fourth street but action picked up on fifth.
