Nível 25 : 25,000/50,000, 5,000 ante

Another spot for Ferenc Riech ended up in an all in situation with the German picking up a pocket pair and his opponent, Alexandre Thomas, finding the higher pair. Both had some history already, as the day kicked off with a min-three-bet by Thomas and him then showing a set of kings. The Aussie min-clicked more than half a dozen times and claimed in table chat to have had premium hands, thus Riech four-bet shoved in this spot.

The Perth-based player was all in and at risk for 700,000, which accounted to more than half of the stack of Riech.

Riech:
Thomas:

The Australian rail went crazy after they saw the cards in play and ended up celebrating with the board running out . There is now a short break to set up the ten-handed table.
