Ryan Riess Doubles Through Anthony Zinno

Level 9 : 300/600, 150 ante

A player opened to 1,700 from early position. Anthony Zinno called on the button, as did the player in the small blind. Ryan Riess then moved all in for 7,350 from the big blind. The initial raiser folded, Zinno moved all in himself and the small blind folded as well.

Both players discarded one.

"After you buddy," said Riess, and his opponent showed {7-}{6-}{5-}{2-}.

Riess showed {8-}{5-}{4-}{3-}. Zinno turned over an {a-} and Riess peeled his card.

"It's a four-sider," he said, turning over a {10-} "I win! I discarded a Jack. If I don't you win!"

Chidwick turned over {10-}{9-}{7-}{4-}{3-}.

Monnette was drawing live with {7-}{6-}{3-}{2-} and he slowly peeled his new card. Eventually he turned over a {6-} and was eliminated the tournament with a pair of sixes.

"Wow. Sick play," said Jared Bleznick after Phil Hui busted a player.

According to Bleznick, Hui raised and his opponent shoved all in before Hui called.

Both players stood pat, but Hui tanked and eventually stood pat.

"He has two, three, five, seven, ten," Bleznick recounted.

Hui seemed to chuckle a little, seemingly unsure whether Bleznick was being sincere or not. Regardless, Hui stacked the pot and is now sitting just under 30,000.
