Pollack Runs to House
Level 12
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Juergen Pollack's last 14,600 chips flew in on a flop of J♥3♠5♥ from middle position, with around 40,000 already in the middle. Adolf Buettner looked him up in the hijack, and a showdown was ordered.
Juergen Pollack: A♥Q♠5♣2♠ 
Adolf Buettner: Q♥J♣7♣4♥
Buettner had flopped better with his top pair but was trumped on the A♦ turn. The A♣ river upgraded Pollack to a full house and the players shared a fistbump while the pot was shipped to Pollack.
