Rasmussen On the Right End of a Cooler
Level 2
: Blinds 100/200, 200 ante
Joao Sydenstricker raised to 600 from the cutoff. Hans Rasmussen called on the button before Jörg Schneegaß squeezed out of the big blind to 3,500. Sydenstricker called, but Rasmussen back-raised to 14,500. Schneegaß shoved for roughly 30,000 which only Rasmussen called.
Hans Rasmussen: K♣K♠ 
Jörg Schneegaß: Q♠Q♦
The flop of 10♦K♥9♠ kept Rasmussen ahead with top set, but it did provide Schneegaß with a straight draw. The 4♣ turn and 9♣ river improved Rasmussen to a full house, earning him a double up. Schneegaß was left with just 500 chips and was eliminated in the next hand.
