Riordin Running Hot

Level 27 : 15,000/30,000, 4,000 ante

From the button, John Riordan opened to 85,000, and Jesse Okonczak called to see a flop from the big blind.

Heads up, the dealer gave the men {J-Diamonds} {K-Spades} {8-Clubs} to work with, and Okonczak check-called a bet of 125,000. He check-called another 275,000 on the {Q-Clubs} turn, and both men checked through the {5-Spades} river.

Okonczak showed {K-Diamonds} {9-Diamonds} for top pair, but Riordan's {A-Spades} {K-Hearts} had him out-kicked. The chip exchange bumps Riordan up to 3.67 million, while Okonczak drops to about 2.1 million.
