Aces For Van Hoek Send Menke Home

Level 20 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

PokerStars Spin & Go Qualifier Erik van Hoek traveled from the Netherlands to find himself on Day 3 of the EPT Grand Final. Van Hoek just raised under the gun and Nikolas Menke moved all in from the big blind for 96,000, and Van Hoek called right away.

Van Hoek: {A-Diamonds}{A-Clubs}
Menke: {K-Clubs}{J-Diamonds}

The board ran out {5-Spades}{6-Spades}{J-Clubs}{10-Spades}{3-Spades} and Van Hoek's aces held up. The Dutchman is one of the six remaining Spin & Go qualifiers out of the 120 that won their way to Monte Carlo.
