Kevin Vandersmissen

Vladimir Geshkenbein limped in the small blind and Koen De Visscher, who isn't playing as loose as the Russian or Kevin Vandersmissen but isn't as tight as Giacomo Maisto, checked his option.

Both checked the {q-Hearts}{a-Clubs}{4-Diamonds} flop before Geshkenbein bet 80,000 on the turn, Visscher called and both checked the {J-Hearts} river, the Russian winning with {j-Clubs}{9-Hearts}.

A couple of hands later and Geshkenbein opened to 175,000 from UTG/CO and Maisto flat-called in the big blind but the board of {k-Hearts}{q-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{3-Diamonds} was checked down to the river where Maisto turned over {q-Diamonds}{j-Clubs} to win again.

Vandersmissen opened to 160,000 and Geshkenbein made it 420,000 from the small blind but snap-folded when the Belgian reraised all-in.
