Brinkmann Ship

Level 30 : 60,000/120,000, 15,000 ante
Torsten Brinkmann
Torsten Brinkmann

After two button raise-and-take-its, betting escalated preflop until a four-bet shove for 3,600,000 from big blind Torsten Brinkmann altered the balance of power on the final table. The hand started just like the preceding ones, with a button raise (to 255,000 from Andrey Danilyuk), but then small blind Ivan Freitez three-bet to 650,000 and Brinkmann shoved behind him!

Danilyuk passed instantly but Freitez asked for a countdown and considered his options before folding and passing the pot, and the chip lead, to Brinkmann.
