Riess Eliminated in 11th Place ($37,089)
Level 27
: Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Ryan Riess, who entered the day as the short stack with just eight blinds, was the first casualty of Day 3.
Five hands into the level, Riess raised to 280,000 chips from the cutoff. Caleb Furth made the call from the big blind.
Ryan Riess: A♠A♦8♠5♣
Caleb Furth: 10♣10♦9♦8♦
On a flop of 5♥6♦9♥, Furth bet enough to put Riess to the test for his remaining chips. He called.
The turn 9♠ gave Furth trips, and the river 6♠ didn't change anything, as Riess was knocked out of the tournament.
