Eibinger Vaults Into the Chip Lead With Kings
Level 24
: Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante
Joseph Oren raised to 600,000 under the gun and Matthias Eibinger three-bet to 1,800,000 on the button. Johan Guilbert then moved all in from the big blind, Oren folded, while Eibinger snap-called for 8,675,000.
Matthias Eibinger: K♠K♦ 
Johan Guilbert: J♥J♦
Eibinger had woken up with two kings and was a big favorite to double up against Guilbert's jacks. The A♥Q♣3♦6♣A♦ board offered no help to Guilbert, and Eibinger took the massive pot to move into the chip lead.
