Michaelis with a Big Stack
Paul Michaelis is close to 500,000 in chips and the WSOP bracelet winner from Germany recalled the hand that peopelled his stack a lot.
According to Michaelis, he faced a raise to 5,000 by Igor Dubinskyy and the player on the button called. Michaelis made it 23,000 to go and just Dubinskyy called. On a flop he bet 15,000 into 50,000 and Dubinskyy called before doing so again for 50,000 on a turn.
The river paired the board and Michaelis moved all in for effectively 90,000, as that's what Dubinskyy had left. The Ukrainian called with ace-king and Michaelis had pocket tens for a turned set and rivered full house.
Omid Mojaverian still seems the man to beat in the last level of the night, though, while Boris Kolev also nears half a million in chips.
