A Fortunate Four Falls For Fritz
Level 7
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Manuel Fritz min-raised to 40,000 from the cutoff and Matthias Eibinger three-bet the button to 110,000. When it got back to Frtiz, he four-bet jammed for 590,000, and got instantly called by Eibinger.
Manuel Fritz: A♥4♥ 
Matthias Eibinger :A♠K♥
Eibinger's Big Slick had Fritz dominated preflop, but the 4♣9♥5♠ flop propelled Fritz into the lead with a pair of fours. Eibinger couldn't find a king to take back the lead on the 8♠ turn or 2♣ river, meaning Fritz doubled up.
