Marvin Rettenmaier

A short-stacked Marvin Rettenmaier moved all in for 17,000 from early position and the player to his direct left called. AJ Kelsall then came along from the big blind and the flop came down 9s10d5d.

Both active players checked and the dealer burned and turned the 8d. Kelsall led out for 18,000, his opponent called, and the 8s paired the board on the river.

Kelsall returned to checking but snap-called off for 41,500 after his opponent moved all in. Kelsall tabled the QdJd for a straight, which bested the KdJs of Rettenmaier and Kh10h of the opponent who had him covered.

AJ Kelsall – 170,000 (57 bb)
Marvin Rettenmaier – Eliminated
