Doubles for Sontheimer and Hajiyev

Level 8 : 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante

Steffen Sontheimer was all in and at risk preflop for 73,000 with the {A-Diamonds}{9-Clubs} and Ryan Riess looked him up with the {7-Spades}{7-Clubs}. The board came {10-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{8-Hearts} and Sontheimer paired his nine on the flop.

Pocket sevens also played a role in the next all in showdown, as Timothy Adams held the {7-Clubs}{7-Spades}. Ramin Hajiyev was all in for 78,500 with {J-Hearts}{10-Hearts} and the {K-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{7-Hearts} flop gave him a flush with outs to a straight flush. The {Q-Clubs} turn and {6-Diamonds} river changed nothing anymore.

Benjamin Pollak came back from a short stack and more than tripled up.
