Slipping from the Chasing Pack

With Martin Hansen boasting such a commanding lead, there are a number of players forming a chasing pack with less than half the Dane's stack. One member was Matt Nieberg, but he just doubled up a short stack to drop to 19,000.

"This is a terrible call," sighed Nieberg as he held the chips above the king high flop. "You've always got a king here." Refusing to listen to his own advice, he plonked the chips onto the felt before being shown {K-Spades}{J-Hearts}. Nieberg revealed {Q-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}.

No change on a {6-Diamonds} turn and {6-Spades} river, and Nieberg slipped out of the chasing back.
