Incredible Cooler Crushes Van Luijk's Dreams
Level 20
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Derk van Luijk and Jason Wheeler had created a pot of 375,000 in the blinds when they went to the A♣4♣2♥2♣9♠ river. After some thought, Van Luijk moved his remaining 214,000 all in, only to be snap-called by Wheeler.
Van Luijk confidently tabled 4♠4♥ for a full house, but Wheeler turned quad deuces with his 2♠2♦ to win the pot.
A stunned Van Luijk was sent to the payout desk, dashing his hopes of adding another EPT Monte-Carlo title to his resume. Meanwhile, Wheeler chipped up to cross the seven-figure mark.
