Van den Bijgaart Doubles
Level 19
: 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante
One of the last hands of the previous level the player under the gun raised it up to 12,000. Joep van den Bijgaart on the button made it 95,000 to go with just 3,000 behind. The player in the small blind, Marc Uzan, thought about it and said "I have a decision". In the end he moved all in and the initial raiser quickly folded. Van den Bijgaart committed his last 3,000 as well after making sure he made one more pay jump.
Van den Bijgaart held 
and was live against Uzan's 
. "Good flop" he said after 
. "Better turn" someone said after the 
gave him the nuts. The 
didn't do anything and Van den Bijgaart doubled.
