Christina Renz opened with a raise to 7,000 from under the gun, then Mads Wissing made it 30,000 from middle position. It folded back to Renz who announced she was all in for 47,000 more. Wissing pondered for a few moments, then made the call.

Renz turned over {A-Hearts}{K-Spades} and Wissing {K-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts}. The flop came a dramatic {J-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}, giving Wissing the straight. After his initial excitement, he regrouped: "No queen!" he said. The turn was the {5-Clubs}. "No queen!" Wissing repeated.

Then came the river -- the {Q-Clubs} -- giving Renz the higher straight and renewed life. She's up to 155,000, and Wissing down to 126,000.
