Schneiders Starts Off With a Bang
Level 31
: Blinds 100,000/150,000, 150,000 ante
On Hand #1 of the final table, Felix Schneiders moved all in for 1,950,000 under the gun and Thierry Gogniat reshoved for 2,950,000 in the hijack. Action folded around to Casimir Seire in the big blind, and he gave it some thought before folding J♥J♣.
Felix Schneiders: A♦K♥
Thierry Gogniat: 10♠10♥
Schneiders' rail began chanting for a king, and they erupted in celebration when the flop came K♦6♥4♣ to give him top pair. "Hold, hold, hold!" they shouted, and Schneiders improved to two pair on the A♥ turn. The river was the 6♠ and Schneiders earned the double up.
