Vieira Takes From Chip Leader Rheem
Level 20
: Blinds 30,000/60,000, 7,000 ante
David Rheem: XxXx/3♠10♠5♦5♠/Xx
Joao Vieira: XxXx/K♥Q♦9♥4♠/Xx
David Rheem was the bring-in and the action folded to Joao Vieira, who was last to act. He completed and Rheem made the call.
Rheem then called another bet on fourth street before fifth street went check-check. Rheem bet out when his five paired on sixth street and Vieira called this time.
On seventh, Rheem checked to Vieira and the latter put out a bet. Rheem thought over his predicament out loud, flashing Ax4x3x to the table in the process.
Eventually, he called the two pair, whereafter Vieira instantly announced: "Kings up." He showed the K♦Q♠3♦ for kings and queens and raked in the sizable pot.
