The Fisherman Reels in Nielsen

Rasmus Nielsen opened the pot to 800 from early position, and Ruben Visser three-bet to 2,100 on the button. Nielsen called, and the two men watched the flop come out {8-Hearts}

. When Nielsen checked, Visser continued out with another 2,500 chips, announcing the amount very clearly as he flicked an oversized chip into the pot.

Nielsen didn't waste much time calling, and the {A-Spades}

landed on fourth street. He knocked the table again, and Visser made it 6,500 to go. Nielsen asked for an estimate of his remaining chips before sticking in a check-raise to 16,200. Visser quickly said, "All in," pushing his final 30,925 chips across the line. It was less than 15,000 for Nielsen to call (getting nearly 4-to-1 on his money), but he wasn't so sure. After a minute of debate, Visser piped up: "That bad?"

"Yeah, that bad..." said Nielsen, trailing off. He continued to mumble quietly to himself for another minute or so before sliding his cards muckward. Visser told him he could pick a card to see, and Nielsen drew the {A-Diamonds}
