Van Wersch Makes Short Work of Munafo

Level 5 : Blinds 200/500, 500 ante

At a table which also featured PokerStars ambassador Marle Spragg and €1,150 Luxon Mystery Bounty runner-up Carlo Wolters, Raoul van Wersch bet 5,500 into a pot of 14,500 from the small blind on a Q46 flop.

Franco Munafo raised to 12,500 under the gun, which Van Wersch called. The 9 turn saw Munafo size up to 15,000, but this time Van Wersch raised all in.

Munafo's stack was covered, and he quickly called off his 29,000 total chips.

Franco Munafo: JJ All in
Raoul van Wersch: KK

Munafo needed a jack to survive, but the river brought the meaningless A instead, sending him to the exit.
