Nowak Breaks Kabrhel (For Now)

In the first hand of the break, there was some discussion on where the button was supposed to be on the table of Patrick Leonard, partypoker ambassador. After the floor came over to establish what had happened in the last hand before the break, he declared that the button was on Leonard and he had to pay the 16,000 button ante. Renato Nowak limped in from the hijack, so did Koray Aldemir from the cutoff after having reentered during the break. Leonard folded and Martin Kabrhel raised to 101,000 from the small blind. Dominik Nitsche, in the big blind, quickly got out of the way. The action was back on Nowak who called. Aldemir folded.

The flop came , Kabrel bet 150,000 and Nowak called without any hesitation.

They both checked through the on the turn to the on the river. Kabrhel counted his 100,000-value chips (4) and then looked at his orange 25,000-value chips. He put his blue chips in and announced all-in. Nowak had a quick glance at his own stack and then asked the dealer for a count. The dealer confirmed that Kabrhel had 880,000 behind. Nowak counted out calling chips, confirmed the amount again and then called.

Kabrhel tabled for the pair of nines on the board and an ace-kicker in his hand. Nowak threw open for two pair, nines and sixes.

"Fuck you man!" Nowak said with a huge smile on his face.

Kabrhel got up and left the table without saying anything.

The rest of the table repeated the previous words said by Nowak several times with lots of laughter around the table. Kabrhel is expected to take a seat at another table later on.
