Rivers Keeps Rolling

Level 7 : 300/600, 75 ante

We walked up on a big pot brewing between Ryan Rivers and Alex Barker. With 26,000 in the pot already, Rivers and Barker saw a flop of {9-Spades}{10-Clubs}{10-Diamonds} and both checked. The {9-Diamonds} hit the turn and Rivers bet 10,000, enough to put Barker all in. Barker tossed his lone T10,000 chip into the pot for the call.

Rivers: {A-Diamonds}{A-Hearts}
Barker: {A-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}

Barker was already drawing dead, and the meaningless {8-Hearts} completed the board to send Barker to the rail.

Dan Piccioli doubled through Rivers on the next hand, but yesterday's runner-up in Event #10 is still sitting comfortably with around 65,000.
