Thomas Keller

Thomas Keller tried to trap chip leader Fabian Quoss and accidentally ended up trapping himself.

Keller limped into the pot from the small blind and and then pushed all in after Quoss raised to 240,000 from the big blind. Quoss made the insta-call and tabled two black aces while Keller showed {J-Diamonds}

{J-Diamonds}

{Q-Hearts}

.

The flop of {5-Spades}

{5-Spades}

{2-Diamonds}

{5-Diamonds}

was no held, though the {4-Diamonds}

{4-Diamonds}

on the turn did give Keller a flush draw which didn't come when the {3-Clubs}

{3-Clubs}

fell on the river.

Keller left in third place with $280,852 while Quoss is going into heads-up play with Brian Lemke with a near 4-1 chip advantage.
