Rheem Gets Rocked

An early position player raised to 8,000, and Chino Rheem called in the cutoff. Michael Blocksidge was next to act on the button, and he put in a three-bet of 26,500 total. The original raiser folded, and it was back to Rheem. He shoved all in and Blocksidge called fairly quickly.

Rheem: {k-Spades}{j-Hearts}
Blocksidge: {q-Clubs}{q-Hearts}

Rheem was in bad shape, and the flop didn't bring him much help, coming {6-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{8-Spades}. The turn brought the {7-Spades}, giving him a ten as an out, but the river came the {3-Hearts}. Rheem was eliminated, while Blocksidge jumps into the chip leader.
