Paul Fehlig Eliminated in 12th Place ($5,269), DB On A Tear, Takes Chip Lead
Don Baumer is running white hot right now. It wasn't too long ago he was the chip leader with almost 700,000, but after some hits and the natural tournament flow, he got down to about 600,000.
Now he is over 1-million and reclaims the chip lead from Lloyd Ney.
The series of hands went like this.
Hand #1: Paul Fehlig and Baumer were heads up and Baumer had placed a 100,000 bet on the turn. The board read and Fehlig called.
Baumer bet another 100,000 when the hit the river and Fehlig called. Baumer showed for a flush and won the pot of more than 500,000.
Hand #2: The very next hand, Baumer was on the button and two players limped before he acted. He set out a stack of chips and called all in, which got the table to quickly fold.
Hand #3: About two minutes after that, Baumer eliminated Fehlig with against the of Fehlig. The two shook hands and Fehlig hit the rail
