Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Donnie Peters

Anders Petterson raised to 11,000 from under the gun and William Skountzos reraised to 25,000, having just about 41,000 behind after his reraise. Sander Aalders flat-called from the big blind and Pettersson called as well.

The flop came down {J-Hearts}

{J-Hearts}

{10-Spades}

{6-Diamonds}

and Aalders checked. Pettersson checked as well to Skountzos. He moved all in for his last 41,000. Aalders folded and Pettersson folded.

Aalders turned up a sneakily-played {A-Hearts}

{A-Hearts}

{A-Clubs}

while Skountzos had two overs to the board and a gutshot straight draw with the {A-Diamonds}

{A-Diamonds}

{K-Hearts}

. He'd be looking for his gutshot to hit though in order to double up.

The turn brought the {10-Hearts}

{10-Hearts}

, but then the river smacked the {Q-Diamonds}

{Q-Diamonds}

on the board and completed Skountzos' straight draw. He's now got over 150,000 chips.
