Marvin Rettenmaier ponders his action

Before they hit the first break, Marvin Rettenmaier was hooked up in a decent sized pot against Steven McKoy. The board was complete and “Mad Marvin” was contemplating his decision when McKoy called the clock.

Tournament staff gave Rettenmaier a minute to make up his mind and he eventually called to see McKoy quickly roll over As2c for the turned wheel.

Rettenmaier still has plenty of ammunition with 19,000 going on break while McKoy moved up to 44,000.
