The flop brought out {K-Spades}{Q-Clubs}{4-Clubs} on which Kees van Brugge check-called 26,000 from Fredrik Andersson.

The turn was the {3-Spades} and both players checked, after which the {J-Clubs} hit on the river.

Van Brugge checked again on the river, and Andersson bet 78,000.

"Call," Van Brugge announced right away, and Andersson mucked.

Van Brugge won without showing, and he's now back up to around where he started today.

Davies Pushing (His Luck)

Level 20 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

Giacomo Fundaro raised it up to 22,000 and Sandro Pitzanti in the small blind made the call. Big blind Scott Davies pushed all in and Fundaro instantly folded. Pitzanti needed some more time, and asked if Davies wanted a call. "I run really good" Davies said with a smile. "But do you want a call?" Pitzanti repeated with a smile of his own. "I like to double up" Davies laughed. Pitzanti eventually folded, and Davies offered him to pick one card to show the world. Pitzanti turned over the {2-Clubs}! "Ok, I'll be on my best behavior from now on" Davies said with an even bigger smile.

The next hand Steve Warburton opened for 23,000 and Pitzanti called from the button. Small blind Davies shoved all in and everyone folded. No showing of cards this time. Davies plays 325,000 (33 big blinds).

Value for Wheeler

Level 20 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

On a {10-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{5-Diamonds} board we picked up the action when Jason Wheeler bet 29,000 and Kees van Brugge called in position. The river was the {Q-Clubs} and Wheeler quickly bet another 75,000.

Van Brugge tanked for a long time, before eventually making the call.

"Aaaah," Van Brugge cried, as Wheeler showed him {J-Clubs}{8-Hearts}.

"Nice hand, Jason," Van Brugge graciously added, as he lost a chunk of his stack.

Davies Doubles After Getting Crippled First

Level 19 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Scott Davies opened the button for 16,000 and small blind Louis Salter folded. Big blind Joep van den Bijgaart glanced over, took a good look how much Davis was playing (starting the hand with about 180,000), and three-bet to 42,000. Davies contemplated his next move, and eventually decided on calling.

The flop came {3-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}{3-Clubs} and Van den Bijgaart bet out 26,000. Davies tanked for a moment and called. The {J-Clubs} fell on the turn and Van den Bijgaart thought about it for a minute before announcing all in. Davies tank-folded and continued with just 113,000.

The next hand Davies shoved all in from the cutoff. Action folded to Farid Yachou who didn't need any time to make up his mind, he called instantly.

Farid Yachou: {A-Diamonds}{K-Clubs}
Scott Davies: {A-Hearts}{8-Clubs}

The flop came {9-Hearts}{J-Hearts}{3-Hearts} and Davies suddenly had a ton of outs. Davies said "Bink!" mili seconds before the dealer burned and turned the {Q-Hearts}. The {10-Clubs} completed the board and Davies laughed; "I win, straight! I'm so good at this game!" Yachou wasn't laughing.
