Ruthenberg Takes on the Knight
Action folded to PokerStars Team Pro Sebastian Ruthenberg, who won this very event back in Season 5, in middle position and he raised to 1,800. The rest of the field folded around to Marcel Van Der Walle in the big blind, and he opted to push back with a three-bet to 4,300.
Ruthenberg splashed in a call and it was off to the 
flop. Van Der Walle, who had a knight chess piece as a card protector, wasted little time in firing out 6,600, Ruthenberg called, and the 
turn. Van Der Walle bet again, this time 16,600, and it proved enough as Ruthenberg released his hand.
Van Der Walle then showed 
, and Ruthenberg simply rapped the table.
