Joep-ping Up The Leaderboard

Just before the break, Joep van den Bijgaart opened preflop to 2,600 and Walid Bouhabib flat-called in the small blind. The flop came {J-Spades} {K-Clubs} {5-Clubs} and Bouhabib check-raised the Dutch player's 3,800 continuation bet to 8,000.

Van den Bijgaart wasn't going anywhere though and made it 22,200 to go before Bouhabib pushed all-in and was quickly called.

Bohabib: {A-Spades} {K-Diamonds}
Van den Bijgaart: {J-Clubs} {9-Clubs}

There was a couple of minutes waiting for the camera to get into place, so much that Neil Channing said, "Corr, they make you f**king sweat here..."

The {A-Clubs} on the turn made the flush but also gave Bouhabib a few outs for a full house, but the river was {3-Diamonds}. Van den Bijgaart had managed to find enough clubs that he would probably be able to take part in the Ryder Cup, he has 220,000.
