On Day 3 of the PokerStars EPT Prague €50,000 High Roller, Matthias Eibinger came, saw, dropped down, doubled back up, and won. Eibinger added €653,000 ($739,552) to his already massively impressive list of cashes in 2018.

The final day of the biggest buy-in event of the series started with four players remaining from a field of 40 entries.

Eibinger started with over fifty percent of the chips in play, but with all three other players on even stacks, there was still a lot of play left. And while Eibinger would eventually triumph, it was anything but easy going for the Austrian.

In the third hand of the day, Eibinger doubled Nemeth losing ace-five to the latter's ace-king. An orbit or what later, Nemeth came even closer to even stacks winning with top set against Eibinger's failed bluff.

Nemeth took over the lead when he busted Pavel Plesuv. The Moldovian lost with ace-king to Nemeth's ace-ten after a ten hit the flop.

With now close to half of the chips in play, Nemeth didn't just sit on his stack. He used it to pound on his two opponents, distancing himself more and more.

When he busted Liang Xu with eight-nine against queen-eight (nine on the turn), Nemeth started the heads up with 6.7 million to 3.3 million.

Nemeth widened the gap even more check-calling all the way with second-pair to Eibinger's failed bluff with an unimproved jack-nine. With now a 9-to-1 lead, Andras Nemeth seemed destined to lift the trophy and win the biggest prize of his poker playing career.

Instead, things went a little different for the Hungarian longtime pro. He first had to fold in a big pot, then lost with eights all in before the flop against Eibinger's ace-deuce. A lucky ace on the flop helped Eibinger get back in the saddle.

Nemeth regained control again, only to double Eibinger once more; this time with an inferior top-pair all in on the turn.

While the stacks weren't even all that shallow, the pots would still blow up regularly.

The last hand of the tournament saw Nemeth get it all in with the best of it. After a failed bluff, Nemeth pushed with ace-ten. Eibinger called with ace-nine, and another double up seemed likely. Instead, a nine hit the river, and Eibinger was declared the winner while Nemeth could do nothing more than sigh and shake hands.

Before this event, Eibinger already had amassed $4,026,169 in live tournament in earnings in 2018 alone. This 23rd cash of the year, worth €653,000 ($739,552), is only his third-biggest cash of his career.

Andras Nemeth Eliminated in 2nd Place (€451,350)

Niveau 20 : 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

Andras Nemeth

Andras Nemeth lost a big hand where he fired 600,000 on the river on a board of {A-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{A-Spades}{4-Spades}{9-Spades}. Eibinger called with {3-Diamonds}{5-Spades} and left Nemeth shorter as he had nothing but {K-}{6-} with no spades.

Down to 3,950,000, he shoved all in from the big blind after Matthias Eibinger had raised to 200,000 from the button. Eibinger called to put Nemeth at risk. Nemeth, though, had the advantage.

Matthias Eibinger: {A-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}
Andras Nemeth: {A-Clubs}{10-Spades}

The {2-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{2-Spades} brought some chop outs for Eibinger. The {7-Spades} on the turn was a blank but the {9-Hearts} on the river sure wasn't.

"Unlucky," Eibinger said as Nemeth let out a big sigh before shaking hands.

Andras Nemeth finished in second place for €451,350 ($511,174) while Matthias Eibinger takes home the trophy and €653,000 ($739,552). An end of day recap is to follow shortly.

The {5-Spades} on the river was inconsequential and Eibinger doubled.

We got there on the turn on a board of {A-Clubs}{2-Clubs}{3-Clubs} {3-Spades} with Matthias Eibinger checking from the big blind. Andras Nemeth bet 350,000 and Eibinger called. Eibinger checked on the {9-Diamonds} river and Nemeth bet a million. Eibinger used one time bank card before eventually calling. Nemeth showed {3-Hearts}{4-Spades} for trips and Eibinger mucked.

Pot and Lead for Nemeth

Matthias Eibinger limped the button and Andras Nemeth checked his big blind.

Nemeth check-called 100,000 on the {7-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{6-Clubs} flop, 380,000 on the {A-Spades} turn, and 350,000 on the {5-Clubs} river.

Eibinger showed {7-Clubs}{10-Hearts} but that was no good against Nemeth's {A-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}.
