Rangel Wishes Kottler a Happy Birthday

Level 11 : Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

Action was picked up with roughly 200,000 chips in the pot on a board of 24575.

Jeremy Kottler was in the big blind and he bet 100,000 on the river. Michael Rangel, who was in the cutoff, went deep into the tank, and the clock was called.

Rangel had a few seconds left before he flicked in the call and heard "I've got a straight", Kottler turned over A3 for a flopped straight, Rangel said "happy birthday" as he tabled the 5, Kottler responded back with "my birthday is not for another six months".
