With the board reading {10-Diamonds}

{10-Diamonds}

{Q-Diamonds}

{5-Spades}

{4-Spades}

, Thierry van den Berg bet 5,000 and his opponent moved all in for 15,000 more. Van den Berg called for the rest of his chips and saw that his {Q-Spades}

{Q-Spades}

{4-Clubs}

was ahead of his opponent's {Q-Clubs}

{Q-Clubs}

{J-Diamonds}

. But the

{10-Spades}

on the river counterfeited van den Berg's second pair and instead of being among the chip leaders, van den Berg saw his day come to an end.
