Mike Watson jammed his stack up without showdown and Steffen Sontheimer commented on this with a "nice no showdown poker," to which Watson replied "yeah, the showdowns weren't that good."

Soon after, Sontheimer raised to 9,000 and Emil Patel defended the big blind. On the {A-Diamonds}{K-Hearts}{8-Spades} flop, Patel check-called a bet worth 7,000 before doing so again for 37,500 on the {6-Diamonds} turn. Patel checked the {9-Spades} river and Sontheimer shoved for 84,000. Patel eventually called with {A-Spades}{J-Hearts} and Sontheimer showed {8-Hearts}{8-Diamonds} for a set.

Right after, Sontheimer defended his big blind with {6-}{5-} and check-called three streets against Watson on an {A-}{7-}{4-}{8-}{10-} board. Watson had {A-}{7-} for two pair and was gone.
