Eric Tsai Eliminated in 2nd Place (€891,000)
Eric Tsai raised to 1,200,000 from the button and Max Neugebauer defended with J?8?.
Neugebauer paired up on the Q?8?7? flop but Tsai had plenty of outs with his straight flush draw. Neugebauer check-called for 1,000,000.
The A? kept Neugebauer ahead. He checked for a second time and Tsai bet big, sizing up to 6,300,000 into a pot of 5,000,000. Neugebauer stuck around.
The 4? completed the board and Neugebauer checked. Tsai emptied the clip and shoved for his last 16,000,000. Neugebauer went deep into the tank and asked for a count.
Neugebauer removed his sunglasses and continued to replay the hand over in his head.
The Austrian ended up calling and the cards went on their backs.
Eric Tsai: J?9?
Max Neugebauer: J?8?
Neugebauer pulled off an incredible hero call with just a pair of eights and caught Tsai bluffing with jack-high, to seal the victory.
His rail went wild before Tsai and Neugebauer shook hands.
That's a hand-of-the-year candidate right there!
