Eibinger Calls Adams' Bluff

Level 5 : 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

In a three-bet pot, Matthias Eibinger and Timothy Adams were heads-up in a pot. The dealer fanned the flop of {k-Spades}{k-Hearts}{5-Diamonds} and Eibinger checked to Adams who bet 8,000 into a pot of around 35,000. Eibinger called and the {4-Clubs} landed on the turn.

Eibinger checked again and Adams fired out another bet of 16,500 which Eibinger called. The river was the {3-Spades} and Eibinger checked for the third time. Adams announced all in for 66,500 and Eibinger was put to the test for his remaining 63,000 chips. He used up two of his time extensions before making the call.

"You're good," Adams muttered as he sent his {q-Clubs}{9-Clubs} flying across the table. Eibinger turned over {a-Clubs}{q-Hearts} for the double up. Adams was down to just 3,000 chips and was eliminated shortly after.

The action folded to Sam Greenwood in the small blind who made it 11,000 to go. Steve O'Dwyer called from the big blind and the flop came {k-Spades}{k-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}. Greenwood continued for 5,000 and O'Dwyer called to see the {q-Diamonds} on the turn.
