Sascha Manns

Richard Flach was not happy at the turnout of this hand while Sascha Manns was more than happy to collect on his luck.

Action opened with a limp from Manns on the small blind, blig blind Flach raised to 6,000. Manns three-bet to 27,500, then Flach checked how much Manns had behind before announcing all in. Manns snap-called for his tournament life.

When they showed, Manns was in bad shape and was in dire need of some luck.

Richard Flach: :10 ♣️ 10 ♠️

Luck instantly shined down on Manns with a set on the flop 7 ♠️ Q ♣️ 5 ♥️. Then with the turn 7 ♥️ that secured him the double up with quads. The 5 ♠️ river was just for formality.
