Siebert Looking for a Huge Payday Off an €11 Investment

Level 16 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante

Immanuel Eike Siebert qualified for the EPT11 Grand Final Main Event via an €11 satellite on PokerStars, and he's looking to cash in big time as the money approaches. However, his tournament life was just out on the line.

We missed the preflop action, but we do know Siebert got his last 69,000 all in and was at risk against Joao Barbosa.

Barbosa: {j-Spades}{j-Hearts}
Siebert: {q-Spades}{q-Diamonds}

Siebert was ahead, but even so it was apparent he was incredibly nervous. Those nerves seemed to subside when the {5-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{q-Clubs} flop, but he still instructed the dealer not to put out a ten. When the {9-Hearts} turn paired the board and have him a full house, Siebert breathed a big sigh of relief, retook his seat, and doubled up after the {10-Clubs} was put out on the river for good measure.
