Waltermann Sends One Home

Level 9 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

With a massive pot of about 75,000 already brewing and the board reading {J-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{2-Spades}, one player got what looked to be his last 50,000 chips into the middle against Gregor Waltermann, who had him covered.

Waltermann: {3-Spades}{3-Hearts}
Opponent: {9-Clubs}{5-Clubs}

Waltermann had the lead with his flopped set of threes, but his opponent could catch up on the river if his open-ended straight or flush draw completed. The {9-Diamonds} changed nothing, and Waltermann took the pot to send his opponent to the rail, putting his stack above the 400,000-chip mark.
