Furth Charges to the Lead
Level 32
: Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante
Caleb Furth opened with a 900,000-chip raise on the button.
Fabian Riebau-Schmithals made the call, before both players checked the flop 8♠2♠2♣.
When the J♣ hit on the turn, Riebau-Schmithals slid a million chips into the pot.
Furth barely hesitated before raising to 5 million.
After Riebau-Schmithals potted with a three-bet the pot, Furth went all in with his last 11,950,000 chips.
Fabian Riebau-Schmithals: A♣A♦Q♣9♦
Caleb Furth: 9♥3♥3♦2♦
With trip-deuces, Furth was in the lead, but Riebau-Schmithals had outs.
The Q♠ on the river was not one of them, and Furth had won the biggest pot of the tournament thus far.
