Riess Flops the Nuts
Level 16
: 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante
Ryan Riess raised to 11,000 from the cutoff and Orpen Kisacikoglu three-bet to 35,000 from the button. The players in the blinds got out of the way but Riess stuck around with a call.
The flop fell 
and Riess checked to Kisacikoglu. He fired another bet of 22,000 and Riess called again. The turn was the 
and both players checked to see the 
river complete the board.
Riess checked to Kisacikoglu for the third time and he checked behind for the second time in a row. Riess opened up 
and took down the pot with the nut-flush.
