Double Dutch
When a player in front of him opened to 4,000, Vereecken shipped his 26,000 into the middle with pocket jacks. The raiser called with ace-king, and the race was on.
The board was all low cards, eventually making Vereecken an unnecessary straight on the river. His jacks stay good, doubling him up to about 55,000 and keeping the hopes of the Dutch alive here in Uruguay.
