Eibinger Puts Davies to the Test

Level 11 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Matthias Eibinger
Matthias Eibinger

Matthias Eibinger raised to 20,000 on the button and Seth Davies called from the big blind. The flop came {a-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{3-Spades} and Davies checked to Eibinger who bet 18,000. Davies check-raised to 55,000 and Eibinger called.

The turn was the {j-Spades} and Davies checked again. Eibinger bet 50,000 and Davies called to see the {3-Clubs} on the river. Davies checked one more time and Eibinger pushed in a bet of 200,000. Davies thought for a minute but elected to lay his hand down.

During the hand, Mikalai Vaskaboinikau busted his short stack after running into Alexander Uskov's pocket kings. As well, Imad Derwiche lost a coin flip against Dominik Nitsche. The final 16 players are redrawing for seats and taking an early 15-minute break.

Nitsche Doubles Through Derwiche

Level 11 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Dominik Nitsche
Dominik Nitsche

Imad Derwiche raised to 40,000 from the cutoff and Dominik Nitsche called in the big blind although Derwiche was sitting ready to call Nitsche's shove.

"How much you have?" Derwiche asked Nitsche and Nitsche confirmed he had 24,000 left. "Why you don't put it in?" Nitsche just laughed.

The flop came {a-Spades}{7-Clubs}{8-Clubs}, Nitsche threw in his last chips and Derwiche hesitated for a bit before reluctantly making the call.

Dominik Nitsche: {j-Spades}{8-Spades}
Imad Derwiche: {k-Hearts}{4-Hearts}

The rest of the board was completed with the {7-Diamonds} on the turn and the {2-Diamonds} on the river for Nitsche's flopped pair of eights to improve to two pair to double him up.

Isaac Haxton was down to less than 50,000 and he moved all in from middle position. Steve O'Dwyer made the call from the small blind and the cards were tabled.

Steve O'Dwyer: {q-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}
Isaac Haxton: {a-Spades}{10-Hearts}

The flop came {j-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} and O'Dwyer took the lead with a pair of jacks. The {j-Clubs} on the turn left Haxton drawing dead to the {10-Diamonds} on the river.
