Two Shoves on Different Tables
Two players shoved from different ends of the leaderboard and different tables through the midway point of Level 4.
First, Stephen Chidwick opened off a short stack and Timothy Adams three-bet to 13,500 from the small blind. Matthias Eibinger was in the big and after eyeing his opponent’s holdings, he slid 200,000 across the line.
