Fehlig On Fire

Level 21 : 6,000/12,000, 1,000 ante

Paul Fehlig was among the shortest stacks on the money bubble, but thanks to some great river cards, he managed to come from behind twice and double up through two different opponents.

Since then, he's been rolling and is now over 600,000.

On this hand he was heads up with Jeremy Scharf. The two players were looking at the {q-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{5-Clubs} flop and Scharf checked. Fehlig bet 32,000 and Scharf called.

The turn was the {8-Hearts} and both players checked. The river was the {3-Hearts} and Scharf checked again. This time Fehlig bet 58,000. Scharf called and Fehlig showed pocket queens for a set of queens. Scharf mucked.

Paul Fehlig Eliminated in 12th Place ($5,269), DB On A Tear, Takes Chip Lead

Level 21 : 6,000/12,000, 1,000 ante
Don Baumer
Don Baumer

Don Baumer is running white hot right now. It wasn't too long ago he was the chip leader with almost 700,000, but after some hits and the natural tournament flow, he got down to about 600,000.

Now he is over 1-million and reclaims the chip lead from Lloyd Ney.

The series of hands went like this.

Hand #1: Paul Fehlig and Baumer were heads up and Baumer had placed a 100,000 bet on the turn. The board read {6-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{4-Hearts} and Fehlig called.

Baumer bet another 100,000 when the {3-Hearts} hit the river and Fehlig called. Baumer showed {7-Hearts}{8-Hearts} for a flush and won the pot of more than 500,000.

Hand #2: The very next hand, Baumer was on the button and two players limped before he acted. He set out a stack of chips and called all in, which got the table to quickly fold.

Hand #3: About two minutes after that, Baumer eliminated Fehlig with {k-}{k-} against the {a-Clubs}{k-Clubs} of Fehlig. The two shook hands and Fehlig hit the rail
