Flesner Picks Off Schiffbauer With Aces; Nahm Cut Off By the Floor as Gilboa Gets a Penalty

David Salituro

Level 15 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Robert Schiffbauer raised to 8,000 in early position and Emanuel Flesner called in the cutoff.

The flop came 5?8?8? and Schiffbauer bet 10,000. Flesner called to see the 9? turn.

Schiffbauer then bet 18,000 and Flesner again called. The river was the K? and Schiffbauer slid forward a bet of 44,000.

Flesner snap-called, believing he was all in for his last 46,500, and turned over A?A?. Schiffbauer had 6?6? and argued that he should get 1,500 back since Flesner just called his river bet.

"I believe you," Flesner said as he virtually doubled up.

At the same time at another table, Stephen Nahm moved all in from the small blind on a board of 8?6?4?5?4? and received no callers. Uri Gilboa then picked up Nahm's cards and revealed 10?7?.

The floor was called over and Gilboa was given a penalty for exposing Nahm's cards. Tournament officials also told Nahm that he's cut off from ordering any more drinks tonight.
