Schirp Fills Up, Moves Up

Our Dutch friends alerted us to an enormous pot won by Martijn Schirp.

It folded around to the gent in the small blind, who just limped in. Schirp raised to 11,000 from the big, and his opponent called.

They saw a {5-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} flop and the small blind checked. Schirp bet 15,000, the small blind called, and they saw the turn.

The turn was the {q-Spades} and the small blind check-called 37,500 from Schirp this time. They were at the river.

The river came the {8-Diamonds} and this time the small blind checked. Schirp tanked up for a while before betting what looked like 88,000. His opponent called and turned over {a-Clubs}{a-Diamonds} - but Schirp turned over {4-Hearts}{4-Clubs} for a full house, and upped his stack to 1.12 million.
