Austrian high-stakes crusher Matthias Eibinger, who has more than $24 million in live earnings according to The Hendon Mob, attempted an ambitious seven-high bluff with a 15% pot shove on businessman Brandon Steven. But did the gutsy move pay off?

Sean Troha: A♠A♥Q♠9♥6♠ All in
Luis Velador: A♣7♦6♥6♣3♦

Level 15 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Alex Livingston made it 15,000 to go from middle position with Phil Hellmuth calling from the cutoff. From the button, Dylan Weisman squeezed it up to 69,000, which Livingstone called. Hellmuth mulled it over for quite some time before electing to fold.

Livingston jammed for Weisman's remaining 80,000 or so chips on the 9♥7♥5♣ flop. Weisman called.

Dylan Weisman: A♠K♥J♥8♥3♠ All in
Alex Livingston: A♦7♣6♣5♦3♥

Livingstone had bottom two pair, but Weisman had a lot of outs that he could hit with two cards to come. The rest of the board came 4♥K♣, improving Weisman to a flush. Both players had the same low, but because Weisman won the high, he got three-quarters of the pot.

Player	Chips	Progress
Dylan Weisman	350,000 98,000	98,000

Phil Hellmuth	290,000 166,000	166,000

Level 16 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Brad Ruben made it 16,000 to go from the cutoff with Matthew Beinner calling from the small blind, and Andrew Yeh defending his big blind.

Yeh jammed for around 200,000 upon seeing the Q♣ roll off on the river. Ruben folded, and Yeh turned over Qx5x for a full house.
