It took back-to-back hands for Matous Houzvicek to knock out Bohdan Cherba. Cherba was extremely short when he moved all in on the button with jack-nine and he won the flip against Houzvicek's small blind call with pocket-eights.
The next hand Cherba got it in again, this time he was up to 85,000, or around 5.5 big blinds. Houzvicek was ahead this time with jack-nine suited against Cherba's seven-six suited and held.
After a stumble a couple of hours ago, the defending Champ is back up in the counts.
