Nitsche Joins Silver, Gets Gold
Niveau 5
: Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
Dominik Nitsche has joined the silver tables of the main event for the last hour of Day 1a. A few hands after sitting down, he raised to 3,000 chips from middle position after a limp from an early position player.
James Jewell was next to act in the cutoff and three-bet jammed for 24,200. The limper folded while Nitsche eyed the all in, shrugged, and called.
James Jewell: A♠K♥
Dominik Nitsche: A♠Q♠
Nitsche was a big dog, but that changed when the flop came Q♥J♥2♠. His top pair would remain the best hand on the 9♣5♦ runout and Nitsche scored a knockout in the final stages of Day 1a.
