Ryan Riess Can Be Persuasive

Level 10 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

There was an open from late position and one caller in the form of 2013 Main Event Champion Ryan Riess, who was in the big blind.

The {5-Spades}{4-Spades}{2-Clubs} flop saw no action, and the turn card was the {q-Clubs}. Riess checked and faced a bet of 5,000. He responded with a check-raise to 18,000. His opponent didn’t appear convinced but eventually let his hand go.

At the same table is a player who has made his way over from Venezuela — Jorge Espinoza, who currently has an above average stack of 160,000 chips.
