Sebastian Ruthenberg Eliminated
Tomer Berda opened to 10,000 in early position and Sebastian Ruthenberg, having been crippled moved all-in for his final 28,800 before Morten Mortensen reraised to 100,000, the action went back to Berda who would be all-in if he called.
He thought for a couple of minutes before pointing to Ruthenberg's stack, "That's about 29?"
"That's not important," said Ruthenberg with a smile, "there's 100 over here!
Berda tanked for another minute.
Ruthenberg, "I would like you to call I think, I'm not sure...wait 9 more minutes and we might make the money!"
Berda replied, "I have a hand..."
"We all have hands, as you can see," laughed Ruthenberg.
Berda took off his glasses and furrowed his brow, "I call time," said Ruthenberg. Thomas Kremser came over to the table and told Berda he had one minute to make a decision, finally though the latter folded.
Ruthenberg:
Mortensen:
"What did you have?"
"Tens."
"So call!" said Ruthenberg deadpan.
The board came , no luck for the German and he was knocked out, leaving Michael Tureniec as our only remaining former champion
