Rheem Makes a Fine Fold
Level 21
: 6,000/12,000, 0 ante
Two big stacks just tangled on Table 701. With 636,000 in the pot, big blind Louie Calvo potted the turn with the board reading 
.
Chino Rheem was on the button, facing a tough decision. Calvo was de facto all in, leaving himself only about 40,000 behind. Rheem counted his chips, contemplated for a bit, but then decided for folding.
Calvo showed 
for the nut-straight, and Rheem replied "Top set. Top set."
