Slotboom Gets Jacked

Preflop, Marc Podell raised to 10,500 and Rolf Slotboom made the call in the big blind.

On a flop of {5-Clubs} {8-Hearts} {9-Spades}, Slotboom checked and Podell bet out 16,000. Slotboom called.

The turn fell the {8-Clubs}. Again Slotboom checked and Podell bet 35,000. Slotboom called again.

When the river fell the {5-Spades}, Slotboom bet out 7,000 and Podell made the call.

Slotboom showed {6-Hearts} {6-Diamonds} and his opponent showed {J-Clubs} {J-Diamonds}.

Podell: "I wish you would have shoved. I would have called."
Slotboom: "Thats a nice story after the hand is over and you've seen my cards."
Podell: "I was sure I had the best hand."
