Chop It Up For Ruthenberg

Sebastian Ruthenberg
Sebastian Ruthenberg

Sebastian Ruthenberg raised to 16,000 from the button and was called by the big blind. The flop fell {2-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{8-Spades}.

"Don't pretend like you have any of that," Ruthenberg's opponent said with a laugh. He checked to Ruthenberg who bet out anyway, firing 17,000. His opponent called and the turn brought the {J-Hearts}. Both players checked and the river came {10-Spades}. His opponent bet out 27,000. Ruthenberg made the call and his opponent turned up {10-Clubs}{3-Clubs} for a rivered pair of tens.

Ruthenberg laughed as he tabled {10-Hearts}{6-Hearts} for a pair of tens as well. The two laughed as the dealer began to chop the pot.

"At least I had a draw!" his opponent said.

"I had a pair draw!" quipped back Ruthenberg. Ruthenberg is now sitting at 1,060,000 in chips.
