Stiefel Out as Mueller Storms On
Level 18
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Boris Angelov opened under the gun to 18,000. He was called by Jens-Florian Mueller in the small blind before short-stack Benjamin Stiefel shoved all in. Both players called and it went three ways to a flop.
It came 3♦K♠9♦. Mueller bet 30,000 and got called.
Both players checked on the 2♣ turn.
It was a similar story on the river, as the Q♣ hit and neither player opted to bet.
Benjamin Stiefel: A♦6♣
Jens-Florian Mueller: K♦J♠
Boris Angelov: Mucked
Mueller took it down with top pair, as Angelov mucked and Stiefel tabled ace-high. The German won a large pot to put himself among the chip leaders.
