Van Zadelhoff At the Top of the Counts

Level 2 : 75/150, 0 ante

It is only level two and Steven van Zadelhoff has already knocked out two players! "We have a little situation here," the always friendly Dutchman said when the dealer just counted out the stacks of him and opponent Doug Zhao.

"Am I covered?" the Chinese asked and his {Q-Hearts}{10-Clubs} was still tabled in front of the chips. Van Zadelhoff said he had three-bet on the button against an open from under the gun and the Chinese then jammed for more than 40,000 with his queen-high only to see the Dutchman snap it off holding {A-Spades}{A-Clubs}.

The board ran out {9-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{6-Clubs}{A-Diamonds}{4-Spades} and that saw van Zadelhoff's stack skyrocket to the top.
