Level 13 : 1,200/2,400, 2,400 ante

It's one big Joris Ruijs show over at table 1, who's now fully in command after taking a huge chunk off Julius Schamburg to soar to nearly 800k, about twice the stack of his nearest challenger.

In a button versus big blind situation, Ruijs limped in on the button and Schamburg checked his option. On the {a-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} flop, Schamburg bet 9,000 and Ruijs called. The turn brought the {3-Clubs} and Schamburg continued for 41,700, which Ruijs called again.

Schamburg slowed down and checked on the {k-Hearts} river. Ruijs came up with a bet of 142,000, which sent the German deep into the tank. Covered in his hoodie with his head buried in his hands, he tried to figure out whether Ruijs had it or not.

After nearly three minutes, he flicked in a calling chip.

"Flush," Ruijs casually said, who showed {7-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}.

"Aargh, I knew it!" Schamburg exclaimed, before paying off the sizable bet with a grimace.
