Feurle's Fury

Markus Feurle just eliminated two players on successive hands.

On the first, Feurle had Bob Bright all in preflop. Bright had {9-Hearts}{9-Spades}, and Feurle {A-Spades}{A-Clubs}. The board came {10-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{2-Spades}{5-Hearts}{K-Hearts}, and Bright was out.

On the second, Mike Wattel raised all in from middle position, and Feurle called from the button. Wattel had pocket fives, while this time Feurle had pocket nines. The board blanked out for Wattel and now he's out. Feurle now has 510,000.
