Speidel Looking for First Bracelet

Oliver Speidel
Oliver Speidel

With 550 in the pot, Oliver Speidel an his opponent in middle position proceeded to check it down as the board ran out {K-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{Q-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{2-Clubs}. The middle-position player rolled over {A-Spades}{5-Spades} for ace high, which was no good against Speidel's {8-Spades}{8-Clubs}.

Speidel, who won a big tournament in Australia back in January, was featured as one of PokerNews' Rookie Roundup selections this summer; however, he only made the trip to Vegas to play in the Main Event. That means Speidel stands the best chance of capturing a bracelet in 2012 right here in Cannes!
