Ugly River Halts the Action

Level 1 : 10,000/20,000, 10,000 ante

Ryan Riess opened to 45,000 in the hijack and Rainer Kempe re-raised to 160,000 in the cutoff. The action folded back to Riess who made the call. The flop came {j-Spades}{8-Spades}{6-Clubs} and both players checked to the {9-Spades} on the turn.

Riess led out for 250,000 and Kempe called to see the {10-Spades} on the board. With a four-card straight flush on the board, both players shut down and tapped the table. Riess announced two pair but Kempe turned over {7-Hearts}{5-Hearts} for a turned straight to win the pot.
