First Hand Back is Good to Matthais Neu

Matthais Neu raised to 8,000 from under-the-gun and was immediately re-raised all in by a short-stacked player. Neu called the additional 25,000 and the all-in player announced he had a pair, turning over {7-Spades}{7-Clubs}.

Neu turned over {Q-Hearts}{Q-Spades}, and the short stack could only shake his head as the board ran {6-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{K-Hearts}{6-Spades}.

Neu now has a stack of 190,000.
