Van der Riet:
Van der Riet's slim three-bet had come through on the flop, and his two pair was poised for the knockout. The turn
was no help to the at-risk Labernardie, but the river would bring salvation. The 
that landed on the end counterfeited her opponent's kings up, giving both players the same two pair. Labernardie's kicker was the big one though, and she's picked up the double. That moves her up to about 54,000, her and van der Riet essentially swapping stacks in that exchange.
