Rinne Doubles with Aces; Reard Building a Stack
Abdelkader Benhalima opened to 4,000 from middle position and thank each player as they folded preflop. However, the courtesies stopped at Toivo Rinne, who jammed for 23,600 from the small blind.
Rinne tried to move all in at first by making a triangle symbol with his hands, however, the dealer insisted on a verbal action before confirming the bet. Rinne seemed less than pleased about that but announced all in after the discussion.
Benhalima snap-called but was apoplectic after the hands were tabled.

Rinne doubled up with aces after the runout.
Also at the table is Alexandre Reard, who had dropped down to 13,000 at one stage. He's managed to 10x his stack and sits comfortably as the dinner break approaches.
