Level 27 : 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Justin Steinbrenner
Justin Steinbrenner

Over on the outer table, Justin Steinbrenner opened the action with a raise to 125,000 in the cutoff. He found only a single caller in Symeon Alexandridis from the button and they headed to the {j-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} flop. Steinbrenner opted for a check-raise from 150,000 to what appeared to be 550,000.

Alexandridis wasted just a few seconds before moving all-in and Steinbrenner called for around 1.5 million total.

Justin Steinbrenner: {a-Clubs}{a-Hearts}
Symeon Alexandridis: {5-Hearts}{5-Clubs}

The {7-Hearts} turn gave Steinbrenner some further outs but the {6-Clubs} river was not among them to send the Costa Rica based German to the rail in 13th place for €57,080.
