Event 13: 4th place - Geller

$200 + $30 DS Semi Turbo NL (2 Re-Entry)                         

Ben Geller (Far Rockaway, NY) got all-in and called by Ryan Chapman.  Ben's K9 of hearts needed help against Ryan's A6 of clubs.  The board came T 5 3 J 2 -- with three hearts -- and Ben doubled up to over 1.3 million.  Ryan was left with ~660k.

Ryan opened for 160k utg and Aaron Dillard made it 1 million smooth from the button.  Ryan gave it some thought, then called all-in, showing 97 suited.  Aaron was way ahead with pocket Kings.  Then the board came Q J 9 Q 9 and Ryan caught what he needed on the river to double up.

Ryan was close to 1.5 million after that pot.  Aaron was left with about 3 million.

Ben Geller then flat called from the small blind.  Ryan raised from the big, Ben limp-re-raised to 300k, Ryan shoved and Ben called all-in.

Ryan held QJ offsuit.  Ben held 43 offsuit (I don't make this stuff up, folks).

The flop came Q 4 3, giving Ryan top pair, but giving Ben two pair.  The turn was an inconsequential King, but then a Queen on the river again delivered the winner to Ryan.

Ben Geller finished in 4th place, earning $4,302.
