Double Knockout Puts Riley Back On Top

Ismael Bojang limped in from under the gun and Michael Hertisch raised to 8,000 from the hi-jack. Phillip Riley called from the cutoff and it folded back to Bojang who made it 35,600. With the action on Hertisch he moved all in for 114,000 and Riley called.

Bojang put his last 50,000 into the pot and the hands were shown with both Bojang and Hertisch at risk for their tournament lives.
