Soakell Nearing Six Figures; Nieuwenhuis Five-Bet Jams
Level 4
: Blinds 200/400, 400 ante
With about 25,000 in the middle, big blind Vytautas Krasauskas checked the 4♣J♥A♥8♦10♠ completed board over to Kyle Soakell on the button. Soakell tossed in a tiny bet of 3,500, and Krasauskas immediately flicked in a calling chip.
Soakell showed A♣J♣ for top two pair, being shipped the pot when Krasauskas mucked his cards.
A few tables over, Dejan Jakovljevic had raised in the hijack when Luke Nieuwenhuis three-bet to 2,800 on the button. Jakovljevic responded with a four-bet to 9,500, and Nieuwenhuis moved all in for just over a starting stack after a small tank.
Jakovljevic spent some time in thought before folding and surrendering the pot to his fellow Dutchman.
