Ruben Folds Queens to Riess; Devey Doubles Against Allande
Level 16
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Ryan Riess raised under the gun, Brad Ruben three-bet in the cutoff, and Riess responded with a four-bet.
"Alright, take it," Ruben stated as he folded his Q♥Q♦ face up to forfeit the pot.
Over at another table, Simon Devey had pushed his 130,000 into a similar-sized pot from middle position on a 5♣5♠7♦2♦ turn. Brian Allande was in the big blind and called with a covering stack.
Simon Devey: K♦K♣
Brian Allande: 10♣7♣
The Q♦ river brought no improvement for Allande, doubling Devey up.
