Philipp Zukernik

The cards of Meir Avigal were already in the muck as he paid off Philipp Zukernik for 33,000. Zukernik had been all in with the {A-Diamonds}{A-Spades} and his pair ended up best on a board of {Q-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{4-Spades}{9-Spades}{Q-Hearts}.

One table over, Martin Wendt was left empty-handed without anything to show for as he ran with a big pocket pair into an even bigger one. Wendt ended up all in for more than 120,000 preflop with pocket jacks against the {K-Hearts}{K-Clubs} of Nicolaas Baars. The superior pair was in no threat on the {A-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{A-Diamonds} board and Baars jumped to nearly 100 big blinds as a result.
