Scholderle and Bilinsky Play it Carefully

Nível 25 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

After betting 130,000 on a 9♦Q♥7♠ flop, Uri Scholderle and Christoph Bilinsky saw a K♠ turn.

"How much do you have?" Scholderle asked, before tapping the table again. They checked again on an A♣. Scholderle showed queen-jack for a pair of jacks, enough to beat Bilinsky's pair of nines with jack-nine. Scholderle continued to chip up.

From an early position, Justin Levitt put all his 255,000 chips in the middle. On the button, John Cipriano called, but Eric Hall in the small blind reraised all-in for 1,500,000.

Eric Hall: J♠J♣

Levitt was already standing up when he saw the flop K♦4♠9♦. The 5♥ arrived on the turn, and the 2♠ on the river, leading to Levitt's elimination.
