The two finalists have yet to play a substantial pot, but Stefan Schillhabel is winning the war of the small ones so far.

In a recent hand, Adrian Mateos opened to 50,000, and Schillhabel defended his big blind. The flop was QsJh6h, and Schillhabel check-called a bet of 35,000. Both players checked through the 7h turn, and the river was the 9d. Schillhabel led out for 58,000, and Mateos quickly folded.

That action was the exact same as the action on Mateos’ previous button, with Schillhabel check-calling and then betting the river. He’s now the chip leader, inching out in front of Mateos. The two have essentially traded places since the start of the match.

Stefan Schillhabel – 1,480,000 (74 bb)
Adrian Mateos – 1,020,000 (20 bb)
