Rheeming the Competition

David Rheem just chipped up in a big way. With {Q-Hearts} {Q-Spades}, Rheem went all the way to the river against one opponent who had {J-Clubs} {J-Diamonds}. Rheem flopped a set when the flop came {Q-Clubs} {7-Clubs} {4-Hearts}, and his opponent never improved when the turn and river were {4-Clubs} and {5-Clubs}.

Rheem now has 98,000 chips.
