Riess Jams Into Foxen

Level 17 : 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Ryan Riess limped the small blind and Alex Foxen checked his option to a flop of {K-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{8-Hearts}. Riess checked, Foxen bet 55,000 only for Riess to check-raise all in. Foxen shook his head and folded.

Jean-Noel Thorel joined the action after the break and raised, and Riess called to see a flop of {A-Clubs}{K-Hearts}{2-Spades}. Both checked, Thorel bet the {Q-Diamonds} turn for 100,000 and Riess folded.

The next hand, Riess made it 80,000 from the cutoff and Benjamin Pollak called in the small blind. Thorel instantly three-bet to 500,000 and that won the pot without resistance.
