One for Eibinger

Level 20 : 300,000/600,000, 600,000 ante

Anatoly Filatov raised to 1,200,000 from the button with {a-Clubs}{4-Spades} and Jean-Noel Thorel called in the small blind with {a-Hearts}{7-Spades}. Christoph Vogelsang contemplated for a bit and then shoved from the big blind with {k-Hearts}{q-Diamonds} and got no action.

Thorel now picked up {a-Hearts}{a-Diamonds} on the button and raised it up to 1,500,000. Chin Wei Lim three-bet to 5,200,000 in the big blind with {k-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}, Thorel snap-responded with a shove and Lim quickly folded.

Lim found {a-Diamonds}{8-Spades} in the small blind and completed his small blind after checking how much Matthias Eibinger had behind. Eibinger had {k-Clubs}{3-Clubs} and opted to check. The flop came {4-Clubs}{4-Spades}{j-Hearts}, Lim bet 600,000 and made the call. The turn brought them the {3-Diamonds} for Eibinger to make two pair. Lim check-called the 1,000,000 bet of Eibinger. The river completed the board with the {7-Spades} and they both checked for Eibinger to claim the pot.

Level 19 : 250,000/500,000, 500,000 ante

The flop came {j-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{4-Hearts} and the action checked around to the {a-Spades} on the turn.

The action checked to Thorel who bet 1,000,000 and both Eibinger and Filatov made the call. The river was the {q-Spades} and all three players checked again. Thorel showed his ace with ten kicker and was awarded the pot.
