Metaal Defending Orange Pride
Govert Metaal is up to 140,000. Before the dinner break Metaal played a five bet pot where his opponent called before the flop, but eventually folded on the river when Metaal moved all in. Metaal didn't told us what he had, but it was a big pot he said.
He also won a sizable pot after the break where had pocket queens on a board where the turn was a third seven. With his fullh ouse Metaal bet big with the supposition that his opponent had a pair and so a fullhouse which he wouldn't be willing to laydown. Metaal was right, his opponent indeed did call and mucked after seeing Metaal's big pair.
The other two Dutch players are playing with a bit fewer chips; live qualifier Mateusz Moolhuizen has a little over starting stack, Luuk Gieles plays a little less.
