German's, and specifically Igor Kurganov and Benny Spindler, are pretty good at these high rollers and ended up as the two biggest stacks last night.

Both have lost a little ground today but Spindler has recovered his position somewhat.

Spindler took a pot off a player in the hijack. He opened to to 4,200 and called when Spindler three-bet to 9,600 from the small blind. The flop fanned {7-Spades}{4-Hearts}{5-Diamonds} and both players checked to the {4-Diamonds} turn where Spindler led for 8,200. Call. Both players wenting back to checking on the {10-Spades} river and Spindler opened {2-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}. The hijack mucked.

Kurganov, meanwhile, was busy being put in his place by Vanessa Selbst. The action was three-way to a {4-Clubs}{3-Spades}{7-Clubs} flop and Philip Sternheimer led for 4,200 from the small blind. Selbst called from the big blind before Kurganov raised to 13,500. Sternheimer folded but the Team PokerStars Pro three-bet to 34,500. Kurganov didn't like it and folded.
