Van Meegen Storms The Kastle

Level 7 : 300/600, 50 ante

Dutchman Rens Van Meegan has just doubled up to 26,000 chips after taking on Casey Kastle and winning.

By the river the board read {6-Hearts}{5-Spades}{9-Clubs}{j-Clubs}{q-Clubs} and Kastle, who started the hand under the gun, checked to his opponent. With 13,000 already in the pot and having 13,000 in his own stack, Van Meegan moved all in which sent Mr Kastle into the tank.

He stayed submerged for two minutes, checking his cards a couple of times to see if they had changed to give him the nuts. They hadn't and he tossed them into the muck, leaving himself with 13,900 to play with.
