$3,500 WPT Seminole Hard Rock Poker Showdown Championship Event
Level 11: Blinds 600/1,200/200 ante
603 Players Remaining, 89k avg (74 bb)
Riess (2nd from left) & Tilly (center) at the Table
2013 WSOP Main Event Ryan Riess has seen more action in the first 30 minutes than a player can expect throughout an entire Day 2.
Riess recent tweets include winning a 90k pot on the first hand against Jennifer Tilly, losing a 450k pot to drop to 20 bb and then getting a double-up through Tilly to 50k.
The huge hand features a three-way all in. We didn’t catch the action, but did see the board and dealer counting down the stacks after chips are in the middle on the flop.
Board: 
Frank Russo 
(set of 2s)
Ryan Riess 
(missed OE straight draw)
Sheldon Gross 
(over pair)
Russo’s set cracks kings and fades Riess’ straight draw. He doubles 142k through Riess and knocks out Gross in a close count.
Russo began the day with 175k and is now up to ~450k
