Blitzberg

Level 17 : 3,000/6,000, 500 ante

Moments after busting one player by virtue of a runner-runner catch to make a straight, Paul Spitzberg used a real hand to dispatch yet another opponent.

Spitzberg looked down to find {K-Hearts}{K-Diamonds} in the hole and he opened to 14,000 in middle position. The action folded around the the big blind, who three-bet to 40,000, only to see Spitzberg move all in for 175,000 effective.

"I have you covered and I got you beat," Spitzberg told the man he had just put all in. "Fold."

This bit of misdirection worked to perfection and his opponent made the call with {j-Diamonds}{j-Spades}, finding himself crushed by Spitzberg's cowboys.

The final board ran out {3-Spades}{10-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}, and with that a table captain had suddenly emerged.
