The Proverbial Two Birds

Level 14 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

Peter Feldman was eliminated at the tail end of the last level, and we saw it all go down.

Matthias Holz opened to 3,400 under the gun, and Kevin Eyster three-bet to 8,000 straight. In middle position, Peter Feldman shoved all in for 22,100 on a four-bet. Holz re-shoved for 32,000, and Eyster made the call with a chance to eliminate both men.

Showdown
Holz: {9-Clubs} {9-Diamonds}
Eyster: {J-Spades} {J-Hearts}
Feldman: {A-Spades} {K-Hearts}

The board ran out {8-Hearts} {6-Hearts} {2-Diamonds} {8-Spades} {4-Hearts}, and that gives the pot to Eyster's two jacks. With it comes the eliminations of both Feldman and Holz, and it moves Eyster up to about 110,000.
