Rasmussen On the Right End of a Cooler
Level 2
: Blinds 100/200, 200 ante
Joao Sydenstricker raised to 600 from the cutoff. Hans Rasmussen called on the button before J?rg Schneega? squeezed out of the big blind to 3,500. Sydenstricker called, but Rasmussen back-raised to 14,500. Schneega? shoved for roughly 30,000 which only Rasmussen called.
Hans Rasmussen: K?K? 
J?rg Schneega?: Q?Q?
The flop of 10?K?9? kept Rasmussen ahead with top set, but it did provide Schneega? with a straight draw. The 4? turn and 9? river improved Rasmussen to a full house, earning him a double up. Schneega? was left with just 500 chips and was eliminated in the next hand.
