Meanwhile, Gus Hansen now sits with close to 700,000 in chips and has his table mates terrified due to the fact that he's been picking up premium hands as of late.
"It's so sick how I open so many pots, and nobody believes me," says Hildbranski. Immediately after saying that, he moves all in, and gets called just as quickly.

The
board fell in favor of Ayme who took down the pot with two pair, aces and queens.Rottemberg received $19,260 in prize money for his 36th place finish.
Hildebranski is not so quick to back down though. "Ohhh, what did I get myself into? F**k!" he mumbles, letting out a big sigh. "You have pockets? If you have pockets, I call you," he says, trying to draw a reaction from his stone-faced opponent. Hildebranski waves his hand in front of his opponent's eyes, earning just a slight smile. "Hello? You have the nuts?" he asks. Finally, he does indeed fold, sending a nice pot over to the other player without ever seeing a flop.
"I had ace-king," said Hildebranski after the hand, trying to bluff the table.
"Come on, you're not folding ace-king there ever," someone said from the other end of the table.
"You're right. I had a good ace though. Ace-ten. Going crazy with ace-ten."
The first of which saw Mattern lose a race holding ace-king against the pocket jacks of Pierre Ayme. All of the money went in preflop and the board ran out
giving Ayme two pair and the win. That hand left Mattern with just 30,000 in chips.Moments later, Arnaud moved all in from the small blind holding six-seven offsuit and was called by Sebastian Austy who held -- you guessed it -- pocket jacks. Unable to draw out on Austy's superior hand, Mattern ended up our 37th place finisher.
