Van Luijk Cracks Wenzelburger's Aces to Double

Level 29 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Derk van Luijk
Derk van Luijk

Philipp Wenzelburger found A♠A♦ in the hijack and raised to 200,000. Derk van Luijk, the short stack at the table, discovered A♣J♣ on the button and decided to go all in. It was an easy call for Wenzelburger.

As the flop revealed 2♣8♦6♣, there was much hope for Van Luijk as he acquired a flush draw. The J♥ on the turn added another out with the last jack in the deck. True to hope, the J♦ appeared on the river, granting Van Luijk trips and a double-up.
