Jiri Horak was sitting in the big blind and had a raise to 3,000 in front while Bahador Azad then cut out a squeeze to 8,500 from under the gun. Horak moved all in and Azad asked for a count. Once it was determined to be 30,725, Azad folded and asked his opponent whether he had black aces or not.
"No, it was the ace of diamonds and the five of spades," the Czech replied and Azad joked "oh, you had me beat."
One table over, Frederic Schwarzer bet the flop for 1,000 and then folded to a jam worth 12,325 by the player from one seat over.
Markus Ganglbauer raised from early position and picked up two callers before Benjamin Philipps three-bet to 1,600. Ganglbauer shoved for 6,200 and the two cold callers folded, Philipps called it off with the . Ganglbauer only had the but spiked some hope on the flop .
Both the turn and river ensured a split pot instead and the Austrian sat back down.
Marc Radgen, who finished 13th in this event one year ago, has qualified again via PokerStars. Another Marc just entered, Goschel that is. He got into a pot on the turn when his opponent check-raised from 2,100 to 5,100. Goschel called and the river saw the check of the opponent.
Goschel moved all in for what looked like 15,000 and that enforced a fold. Two other German-speaking players are thriving right now: Jonas Lauck at the same table as well as Hannes Speiser.
Bahador Azad opened the action and a short stack shoved for eight big blinds. Petr Jelinek then raised from one seat over and Azad reraised with pocket aces to see Jelinek get his stack in with pocket queens. The blank board provided no help and that was it for the Czech.
On the turn, Dragoslav Timarac faced the check of an opponent in early position and bet 1,600 from the button. His opponent called and checked again the river. Timarac now bet 3,100 and was eventually paid off to flip over . "Just the nuts?" the opponent asked.
Timarac grinned back. "Just. Why would I bet without the nuts?"
On the river, Ronny Voth checked out of the small blind and his opponent in the cutoff made it 2,900 to go. Voth then squeezed to 8,900 and the player in the cutoff gave it a lot of thought before making the call. Voth showed for a full house and that scooped the pot.
Fellow German Stefan Scharer however has been eliminated.
