Pique Drags One In, Kabrhel Busts with Two Pair
Level 9
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Juan Pardo opened to 15,000 on the button and was called by Gerard Pique and Kent Staahle from the blinds.
The 
flop checked through to the 
turn. Pique checked to Staahle, and he bet 16,000. Pardo quickly folded but Pique stuck around to see the 
river.
Both players checked through to showdown where Staahle had pocket fives, but was bested by Pique's 
.
As the hand played out, Martin Kabrhel was eliminated on a nearby table after losing with 
on a 
board. His eliminator was Mike Watson, who had flopped a set of deuces.
