Yair Bitoun went all in for his last 15,000 and Ryan Riess raised to 35,000 on the button. Ivan Luca came along from the big blind and the flop came {9-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{4-Spades}.

Both Riess and Luca checked. The turn was the {k-Diamonds} and Luca bet 24,000. Riess called. The river was the {2-Spades} Luca checked this time. Riess bet 65,000 and Luca folded.

Riess showed {a-Clubs}{4-Diamonds} and took the side pot, but the main pot went to Bitoun who made two pair with {k-Spades}{2-Clubs}.

Bitoun is often referred to as "The Wolf" and has been playing many of the streamed cash games during the WSOP Europe.
