Australians Collide

Oliver Speidel opened for 400 from middle position and received calls from Jeff Lisandro and David Benyamine in the hijack and big blind respectively. The latter checked the {5-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}{J-Hearts} flop and opened the door for Speidel to continuation-bet 650. Lisandro thought for a moment before sliding out his entire stack of around 2,400, Benyamine folded, and Speidel made a quick call to put his fellow Australian at risk.

Showdown
Speidel: {K-Hearts}{K-Diamonds}
Lisandro: {A-Diamonds}{J-Spades}

Lisandro had flopped top pair with top kicker, but it was still way behind the pocket kings of Speidel. The {10-Clubs} turn was a blank, as was the {Q-Clubs} river, and Lisandro made a quick exit from the tournament floor.
