Reijmer Gifted a Double

Level 4 : 100/200, 25 ante

In a battle of the blinds, Mario Paganelli limped in from the small, and Daniel Reijmer raised to 600 from the big. Paganelli called, and he check-called another 800 chips after the {J-Diamonds} {4-Spades} {K-Clubs} flop. On the {5-Spades} turn, Reijmer fired another 2,200 at the pot, but Paganelli snuck in a check-raise to 7,000 this time. Reijmer flatted now, and Paganelli surprisingly checked in the dark before the {6-Hearts} river. Reijmer took his cue to bet another 11,250 (leaving 8,025 behind), and that sent his opponent deep into the tank. After some time, Paganelli shoved all in for the 19,275 effective chips, putting Reijmer to the test for all the chips.

He didn't like it, but the Dutchman had little choice but to call with {A-Clubs} {A-Spades}. Paganelli tabled {7-Diamonds} {4-Clubs} like it was the nuts, but bottom pair was indeed second best here.

Reijmer should be over 55,000 after that big double, but we'll have to wait for him to stack up a little better before we can count him down any closer than that.
