Oh dear, that's not the way Dominik Nitsche would've wanted to finish the tournament today.
They had been a raise to 1,300 with Theofanis Poziopoylos flat-calling before Nitsche moved all in from the button for 11,775. The initial raiser folded but Poziopoylos asked for a count before deciding to make the call.
Poziopoylos:
Nitsche:
Poziopoylos flopped the world when it came and then when the came on the turn followed by the on the river, the young German was eliminated.
Shocked, Nitsche stood there for several minutes saying, "Did that really just happened?"
