Neugebauer Neither Doubles Nor Busts
Level 11
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Julien Sitbon potted to 8,500 under the gun. Max Neugebauer on his direct left stuck in the call, as did Chongxian Yang from the small blind. On a flop of J♦2♣K♥ Neugebauer led out for 25,000 when checked to. Yang folded, and Sitbon went deep into the tank. After around two minutes, he put Neugebauer all in for his remaining 75,500. Neugebauer made the call.
Max Neugebauer: A♣K♠Q♦5♠ 
Julien Sitbon: A♦K♦10♠8♠
The two had each other's gutshot outs, but Sitbon was slightly ahead with his backdoor Royal draw. The 9♥ turn shut that down instantly, with the 9♠ river confining the two to a chop.
