Wattenberg Deals Nasty Blow to Covrig
Level 3
: 200/400, 400 ante
With some 35,000 in the middle and the turn showing 
, Sergiu Covrig checked out of the big blind. Slimane Mameche bet 11,700 and was called by Kai Wattenberg on the button. Covrig then squeezed to around 90,000 with the biggest stack at the table. Mameche folded and Wattenberg called all-in.

The 
river improved Wattenberg to a flush and he doubled for 54,000. "Well, you definitely have some balls," Johann Roesnick said in table chat to which neighbor Wattenberg replied "I was sucked out so badly in the last tournament".
