Zur Linden Grounds Nuez's Flight
Level 5
: Blinds 300/500, 500 ante
With action already underway, Alexander zur Linden, on the button, put airline pilot Guillem Nuez to the test on the river with a bet of 52,000, more than the Spaniard had behind.
After several minutes in the tank on a board of 7♠K♦J♠4♣8♥, Nuez eventually committed the call. The bad news followed shortly after.
Guillem Nuez: K♥10♥ 
Alexander zur Linden: 8♣7♣
Zur Linden had improved to two pair on the river, enough to overcome Nuez's top pair. The Spaniard rose from his seat in visible frustration as tablemates remarked they likely would have made the same call.
