Joep van den Bijgaart Bad Beated Out of the Tournament

Level 10 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

In the last hand of the last level, Dutch pro Joep van den Bijgaart raised under the gun to 1,800 and found two all ins right behind him. Action folded back to Van den Bijgaart and he instantly called.

Joep van den Bijgaart: {K-Spades}{K-Diamonds}
Early position all in: {J-Clubs}{J-Hearts}
Philippe Narboni: {Q-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}

The flop came {Q-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{3-Hearts} and Van den Bijgaart was trailing. The {6-Diamonds} on the turn gave him a live flush draw, but the {10-Clubs} on the river was a blank and some counting was done before it was clear Van den Bijgaart (with a stack of around 54,000) was slightly covered by Narboni (58,200).

The Dutchman wished the table good luck, and left the tournament area with some frustration showing on his face. Van den Bijgaart wasn't the only player who busted, the following players also lost their chips recently:
