Marvin Rettenmaier raised to 240,000 preflop from UTG and it was folded around to Victor Paraschiv in the big blind. The latter checked his cards for a moment and thought before whispering, "All in."

The dealer looked back at Rettenmaier who said, surprised, "He's all in?" Rechecking his cards he then instantly called.

Rettenmaier: {K-Spades}{K-Diamonds}
Paraschiv: {K-Clubs}{5-Clubs}

The board offered only the mearest hint of danger to the German coming {4-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{5-Hearts}{J-Diamonds}.

Rettenmaier has a monster chip lead, nearly six times as much as the other two stacks.
