Markus Dahl opened to 3,000 UTG. Seated in the Big Blind, Sascha Schleinitz was the sole caller.

Schleinitz check-called another 3,000 from Dahl on the Q♣T♦K♦ flop. Action repeated itself on the J♣ river, the only difference being that the sizing from Dahl was now 20,000. The J♣ river meant there were only premium cards on the board. Now, Schleinitz led out for 20,000. Dahl relieved a heavy sigh before making the call.

Schleinitz tabled T♥T♣ for a rivered full house. “Yeah, I had a feeling, horrible river,” Dahl said, releaving his A♥J♠ holdings. Not many low cards involved in this hand, were there?

Sascha Schleinitz: 128,000
