Van den Belt Blends Zegal
Level 9
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Stanislav Zegal had limped under the gun and called the pot-sized raise of Lucas van den Belt on the button. He then checked the 9♥4♦Q♣ flop over to Van den Belt, who bet 43,000.
Zegal called to the 6♦ turn, which both players checked. Zegal bet 50,000 on the 8♠ river, only to be raised to 140,000. Zegal spent a while in the tank, using a couple of time banks, before he found a call.
Van den Belt tabled A♣J♣10♥8♥ for the nut straight, and Zegal calmly added his cards to the muck in defeat.
