Eibinger Gets Some Back; Manole Jams

Level 24 : 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Matthias Eibinger raised to 60,000 on the button and Christoph Vogelsang called in the big blind. Vogelsang check-called a bet of 55,000 on the {J-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{5-Clubs} flop, then check-folded the {K-Clubs} turn to a second barrel worth 210,000.

Rheem Scores A Massive Double Through Eibinger

Level 24 : 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Chino Rheem
Chino Rheem

After the redraw, Matthias Eibinger and Chino Rheem were put back right next to each other and the two once again got involved in a big pot to add another chapter to their storied rivalry.

Rheem raised to 60,000 from under the gun and Eibinger defended his big blind. The flop was {7-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{3-Hearts} and Eibinger checked. Rheem bet 100,000, Eibinger check-raised to 275,000 and Rheem called at the buzzer.

The turn was the {6-Hearts} and Eibinger kept up the aggression with a bet of 220,000. Rheem slid in a call in position.

On the {9-Spades} river, Eibinger bet 300,000 and Rheem glossed over all his options. He used up one of his time bank cards and one second left on his clock, he shoved all in for 1,485,000. Now, Eibinger was the one with a headache, and the Austrian sat up in his chair and talked to himself trying to figure out the scenario.

Eibinger used up all his time banks and with literally one second left on his final extension, he called. Rheem quickly showed {6-Spades}{6-Diamonds} for the turned full house, Eibinger showed {Q-Hearts}{7-Clubs} and mucked to be left with not even 30 bigs.
