Michael "VegasAnnie" Reisman opened to 480 from the Button and received a call from the runner up from Online Event #1: $333 No Limit Hold'em Triple Treys Summer Tip Off Douglas "OpenOpen" May in the small blind.

The flop came A?K?8?. May checked and Reisman bet 575. May made the call.

Both players checked the 5? turn which led to the 8? river. Action was checked by both players once again.

Douglas "OpenOpen" May: A?9?

Reisman had missed his gutshot straight draw and May's top-pair was enough to take the pot down.
