Eibinger Avoids Being the Bubble Boy
Level 18
: Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Matthias Eibinger was forced all-in from the big blind for his last 100,000, and Raffael Pereira in the small blind, who claimed to not look at his hand, called to put him at risk.
Matthias Eibinger: A♥4♠ 
Raffael Pereira: Q♦Q♣
Eibinger unfortunately ran into queens, but picked up extra outs on the 4♥6♣10♣ flop. He then jumped into the lead after the A♣ on the turn, although Pereira picked up a flush draw to go along with his two queen outs. The river was the 3♠, and Eibinger was able to find a double-up.
