Von Kriegenbergh's Isolates

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Under the gun, Paul Chauderson raised and was called by Taylor von Kriegenbergh in middle position. The hijack then moved all in for 119,000 more and Chauderson called, leaving himself 210,000 behind. Von Kriegenbergh, the big stack, asked for a count before announcing that he was all in. It was a tough decision back to Chauderson who stood from his seat and thought for a couple minutes before releasing his hand.

"You have a big hand?" the hijack asked.

"No, I just thought he'd fold," von Kriegenbergh responded as he flipped {8-Spades}{8-Hearts}. The hijack revealed his {A-Clubs}{J-Diamonds} and it was off to the races. When the flop fell {5-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{J-Clubs}, the hijack took the lead and left von Kriegenbergh looking for an eight.

The turn was the {9-Hearts}, which caused Chauderson to smack the table in frustration. He then grabbed his mucked cards and showed {A-Spades}{9-Spades} for what would have been trips had he played. The {K-Clubs} on the river ensured the hijack's double thanks to von Kriegenbergh's isolation.
