Mad Marvin is a Goner

"Mad" Marvin Rettenmaier has just completed the biggest score of his life and has been partying ever since. Rettenmaier has just won the WPT World Championships for $1,196,858 but he will not be adding to that nice little piece of income today.

Rettenmaier raised to 200 in the cutoff and both blinds made the call. The flop was {J-Spades} {J-Diamonds} {9-Spades} and the small blind came out fighting with a bet of 325. The big blind folded but Rettenmaier raised to 1,025 and the small blind just called. The turn was the {7-Hearts} and this time the small blind checked. Rettenmaier bet 1,225 and the small blind check-raised putting Rettenmaier all-in. The German made the call and found himself playing catch up.

Small Blind{9-} {9-}
Rettenmaier{K-Spades} {J-}

The river bricked for Rettenmaier and he was out. So what next for Rettenmaier? Time to hit the hay?

"I am heading over to the Venetian to play."

Once a grinder always a grinder.
