Christian Zetzsche

Level 20 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Over on the outer table, Seyed Tabaei raised to 60,000 first to act. Kaido Mikk called and Tarmo Anton then moved all-in for 160,000 in the big blind. Tabaei reraised to 465,000 and Mikk reluctantly folded.

Tarmo Anton: 8♥8♣ All in
Seyed Tabaei: K♥K♦

The K♠7♥2♦ flop left Anton on the ropes, and he was drawing dead on the 9♠ turn. What followed was an overkill with the K♣ river as Tabaei scored the knockout with quads.
