Osterland Doubles Up

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

German pro Felix Osterland has skyrocketed to the top of our leaderboard after his pocket aces held up against Andre Merheb's pocket queens, though it wasn't without a sweat.

The two got it all in preflop and Merheb's eyes lit up when the dealer spread a {K-Clubs}

{K-Clubs}

{10-Clubs}

{8-Clubs}

flop, for he held the queen of clubs; Osterland was clubless.

"Bad flop for me, man," said Osterland after painfully sweating the turn ( {2-Hearts}

).

The win kicked him up to 67,000 in chips, while Merheb was left super short-stacked.
