Hand #65: Rasmus Nielsen

The last hand of the level began with Joe Pelton having the button. Rasmus Nielsen raised to 110,000 from the cutoff, and J.C. Tran called from the big blind.

The flop came single-suited -- {6-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{J-Clubs}. Tran checked, and Nielsen bet 165,000. Tran called.

The turn was the {K-Hearts}. Tran again checked, and this time Nielsen bet 400,000. After a small amount of deliberation, Tran called.

The river brought the {6-Spades}. Tran checked once more. Nielsen looked at the board, back at his stack, then at Tran. Then he bet 1 million.

Tran riffled his chips. The pot now held almost 2.4 million. After about two minutes, he made the call.

Nielsen showed pocket nines for the full house, and Tran mucked. Nielsen has retaken the chip lead.
