Schillhabel bet out 35,000 and Christner called as the river landed the {3-Clubs} and he checked for a third time.

Dan Smith Takes It on the Turn

Level 2 : 500/1,000, 1,500 ante

Seth Davies raised to 2,500 from the cutoff and Dan Smith called from the button. Both blinds folded and it was heads-up action to the flop, which came down {7-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}.

Davies check-called a bet of 4,000 and then checked for a second time on the {3-Spades} turn. Smith upped his bet to 12,000, and that did the trick as Davies released.

Doug Polk Eliminated by Steffen Sontheimer

Level 2 : 500/1,000, 1,500 ante
Doug Polk
Doug Polk

Doug Polk opened to 3,000 and Steffen Sontheimer three-bet the small blind to 13,000. Polk called, and the dealer spread a {10-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{3-Spades} flop.

Sontheimer bet out 9,500 and Polk called as the turn landed the {9-Hearts}.

Sontheimer checked, and Polk bet out 19,500, as Sontheimer called and checked when the river landed the {J-Clubs}.

Polk pushed all in, and Sontheimer called.

Polk revealed his {8-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds} for a straight, but it would be Sontheimer's {A-Hearts}{K-Hearts} for the second nut flush that would see him eliminate Polk and send his stack to over 300,000 in chips.

Mateos Pushes Nitsche Off

Level 2 : 500/1,000, 1,500 ante

On a flop of {k-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{7-Hearts}, Dominik Nitsche checked from the cutoff to Adrian Mateos who made a bet of 13,000 on the button. Nitsche made the call and the {4-Hearts} peeled off on the turn.

Nitsche checked again and Mateos continued for 40,000. Nitsche stuck around to see the {8-Spades} hit the river.

For the third time, Nitsche checked the action over to his opponent and Mateos ripped all-in for 112,000. Nitsche disgustedly threw his cards away and started explaining the situation to his fellow German, Stefan Schillhabel.
