Schindler Breaches 2 Million

Level 13 : 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Jake Schindler
Jake Schindler

In what appeared to be a three-bet pot preflop, Scott Seiver and Jake Schindler took a flop of {10-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}{10-Clubs}. Seiver was first to act from the small blind and he led out with a bet of 140,000. Schindler called on the button.

The turn was the {5-Spades} and both players checked.

On the {Q-Clubs} river, Seiver checked again but Schindler didn't allow Seiver a cheap showdown. He put out a bet of 375,000. After about twenty seconds Seiver released and Schindler took down the decent sized pot to move right around 2 million chips while Seiver was left with just over 750,000.

Peters Eliminated by Fox in Monster Flip

Level 13 : 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Elio Fox opened from the hijack with a raise to 43,000 and in the cutoff, Matthias Eibinger made it 126,000. Action folded to the big blind where David Peters moved all in for right around 600,000. Action was back on Fox who asked for a count then moved all in himself. Eibinger quickly released.

Elio Fox: {A-Spades}{K-Diamonds}
David Peters: {Q-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}

The board ran out {A-Hearts}{5-Spades}{4-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{5-Diamonds} and that gave Fox the winning pair of aces, chipping him up to over 1,700,000 while Peters hit the rail.
