Fedor Holz Eliminated in 18th Place ($32,360)
The action folded to Fedor Holz who limped from the small blind and Ken Demlakian called from the big blind.
The flop showed and Holz bet 30,000.
"You hit a set already?" Demlakian said as he put in the call.
"I'm wearing your country's shirt and I'm getting bullied by you," Demlakian continued, as he was indeed wearing Germany's national soccer team jersey.
Holz checked the turn and Demlakian bet 70,000.
"Do you like that, 70 for a seven?" Demlakian said.
Holz made the call and on the river the hit, on which Holz checked again, and Demlakian said, "You're confusing me."
"You called 70,000 out of a 320,000 stack," Demlakian said, before eventually moving all in to put Holz at risk with just 248,000 chips left.
Holz went deep into the tank and Demlakian said, "You got the ten?"
"No, I'm better than that," Holz responded.
"You're better the ten, but you don't have the ace," Demlakian continued.
"Yes," Holz said, "It's so weird, you're confident and nervous at the same time."
"Speak to my wife," Demlakian said, getting a laugh out of Holz.
Finally Holz called, and Demlakian turned over what the German pro feared most, .
"Good game," Holz said, as he tabled his and exited the tournament in 18th place.
