Nielsen Eliminated by Nitsche
Level 13
: Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Dominik Nitsche limped in from under the gun and Martin Nielsen then jammed for the last 65,000 in the next seat with his big blind approaching in two hands. All other players folded and Nitsche instantly called.
Nitsche flipped over his 8♥8♠ and Nielsen grimaced an "I am alive" to first roll over the 3♥ followed by the K♣.
No king or straight came on the Q♥10♦5♦9♦6♥ board and that spelled the end for Nielsen.
One hand later Istvan Birizdo arrived on the outer table and Nitsche was in the big blind. Stephen Song opened to 30,000 from the button and Nitsche flat-called. Following the 10♦6♥2♠ flop, Nitsche check-folded to Song's continuation bet.
