: 3,000/6,000, 500 ante
Thorsten Schafer opened to 13,500 in early position and got a call from Florian Langmann to his immediate left before Dmitry Vitkind in the cutoff made it 36,500 to go. Schafer was tanking up when our attention was caught by a hand at another table; when we returned Schafer was counting out the chips to pay Vitkind his double up, so we are guessing that Schafer pushed and Vitkind called all in. Schafer was holding 
but it was no match for Vitkind's ; the board didn't help and Vitkind doubled to 380,000. Schafer's rollercoaster is on a downward spiral now - he was left with 265,000, a below average stack.
