Johannes Strassmann has hit the 100,000 mark after a recent double up.

The board read {K-Spades}

{K-Spades}

{5-Clubs}

{6-Spades}

and Strassmann was faced with a bet of 10,000 in front of him. He reponded by moving all in for 46,875. His opponent thought about it momentarily before making the call with {K-Hearts}

{K-Hearts}

{Q-Hearts}

. Strassmann needed some help, holding {A-Spades}

{A-Spades}

{Q-Spades}

.

Alas, the {2-Spades}

{2-Spades}

turn sealed the deal. The {2-Clubs}

{2-Clubs}

river was merely a formality and Strassmann now has 102,000.
