Katzenberger Pushes Riess Out

Level 28 : 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
Viktor Katzenberger
Viktor Katzenberger

Ryan Riess raised to 200,000 with {q-Hearts}{10-Clubs} in the cutoff, Nicola Grieco called {a-Hearts}{6-Clubs} in the small blind and Viktor Katzenberger called {10-Clubs}{9-Clubs} in the big blind.

Both Riess and Katzenberger caught something on the {q-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{5-Clubs} flop. Riess continued for 200,000, Grieco folded, and Katzenberger simply check-raised all in for 6,560,000 to put pressure on the former world champ.

It was effectively for Riess' remaining stack of 2,410,000 and Riess gave up his top pair.
