It's a Rist you have to take

Daniel Negreanu opened for 100,000 under the gun and everyone folded, except for Markus Ristola who went all in from the big blind. Some gentle dwelling from Negreanu...

And a call! Again! What's going on here? Monsieur Negreanu, weeth all thees action you are really spoiling us!

Ristola: {K-Diamonds}

{K-Diamonds}

{10-Diamonds}

Negreanu: a rather surprising call with {A-Clubs}

{A-Clubs}

{5-Clubs}

Flop:

{8-Hearts}

{Q-Spades}

{6-Spades}

Turn:

{K-Spades}

to put Ristola in a fine position to double up. "Ace!" requested a pro-Negreanu railer feebly.

Duly, river: {A-Hearts}

{A-Hearts}

ROAAAAARRRRR!!!! went the crowd, as the luckless Ristola busted out in 5th place and we continue four-handed, the stacks virtually even.
