No Cash for Neugebauer

Level 14 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Govert Metaal raised to 6,000 from the hijack and the action folded to Max Neugebauer, who went all in for 39,000 from the big blind. Metaal put in the extra chips and the players showed down.

Max Neugebauer: A3
Govert Metaal: QJ

Both players flopped a pair on 34J, but it was Metaal who took the lead. The K turn did not help anyone, nor did the 5 river, which meant that Neugebauer was eliminated as the field inches towards the money.
