Wilhelm Fuhrer has just eliminated both Brent Norris and Paolo Compagno in a wonderful hand, and he now has the chips to be a real force in this competition.
Fuhrer raises to 7,000 in early position, Norris calls in position as does Compagno in the big blind.
Flop: [As] [Ac] [Ks]
All three players check.
Turn: [Js]
Compagno checks to Fuhrer, who bets 12,000 and both players make the call.
River: [Jd]
Compagno bets 26,000 but Fuhrer moves all-in and has both players covered. Brent Norris makes the quick call as does Compagno.
"Someone must had jacks," says Ferenc Gal.
Norris turns over [Ax] [Qx], Compagno turns over [Ad] [3d] and Fuhrer slams the [Jx] [Jx] onto the deck. Runner-runner quads sends both Compagno and Norris to the rail.
Fuhrer ~ 430,000
