Algirdas Deals Big Hit to Ruthenberg

Saveikis Algirdas opened for 4,000 from the cutoff and received a call from Sebastian Ruthenberg on the button. A short-stacked Harald Olsen then moved all in from the big blind for around 17,000, which both Algirdas and Ruthenberg called. When the flop fell {7-Hearts}{5-Spades}{2-Spades}, the former led out for 28,300, Ruthenberg raised big, and Algirdas snap-called off for 87,800.

Showdown

Algirdas{K-Spades}{K-Diamonds}
Ruthenberg{10-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}
Olsen{8-Spades}{8-Clubs}

All three players held pocket pairs, but Olsen was worse while Algirdas was the favorite. The {5-Clubs} turn was of no consequence, but the {8-Diamonds} river was as it allowed Olsen to collect the main pot and survive. With that said, Algirdas still won the massive side pot and dealt a blow to Ruthenberg's stack.
