Rettenmaier's Deuce Holds

Marvin Rettenmaier just won a huge pot in which he was all-in for his tournament life with just a pair of deuces. The story is a bit more complicated that but in the end that's what he ended up doubling with.

Rettenmaier raised to 725 from the button with {2-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds} and the player in the big blind called. The flop was {K-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds}{2-Spades} and the big blind bet 1,100. Rettenmaier raised to 2,800 giving his opponent the option, he decided to three-bet to 6,800. After this raise Rettenmaier decided to get it in for a total of 22,300 chips and his opponent called.

The turn brought the {K-Spades} giving Rettenmaier even more cards to fear but the river was the {8-Hearts} making him double up to 45,000.
