Robin Scheidegger
Robin Scheidegger

Lander Lijo was put to a decision for his tournament life by Robin Scheidegger, who bet enough on the river of the {9-Spades}{8-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{k-Hearts} runout to put Lijo all in.

After considering that decision for a couple of minutes, Bereciartua made the call and saw the bad news. Scheidegger flipped over {7-Clubs}{7-Diamonds} for a straight, and Lijo showed a {k-} as he mucked his hand and left the table.
