Lakerveld Doubles Through Gyorgy With Quads

Level 33 : 250,000/500,000, 500,000 ante
Daniel Lakerveld
Daniel Lakerveld

Simon György and Daniel Lakerveld moved all-in preflop.

Daniel Lakerveld: {9-Hearts}{9-Clubs}
Simon György: {a-Spades}{a-Diamonds}

Lakerveld was dominated but the {k-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{5-Clubs} flop gave the Dutchman a set.

The {10-Clubs} on the turn did not help György and the {9-Spades} was the icing on the cake for Lakerveld hitting quad-nines.

Level 33 : 250,000/500,000, 500,000 ante
Chris Da Silve

Simon Gyorgy moved all-in for just over 10,000,000 from the button and Chris Da Silva called off his 4,600,000 stack from the big blind.

Chris Da Silva: {a-Hearts}{3-Spades}
Simon Gyorgy: {4-Clubs}{4-Spades}

For a second time today, Gyorgy flopped a set of fours after the dealer fanned the {q-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}. Da Silva's exit was confirmed after the {8-Diamonds} turn and {6-Diamonds} river.

As Da Silva left the tournament room, Daniel Lakerveld and Gyorgy discussed a deal but could not come to an arrangement. The players have decided to have a ten minute break before playing heads-up.

Simon Gyorgy
Simon Gyorgy

Daniel Lakerveld opened to 1,200,000 from the button and Simon Gyorgy called from the big blind.

Gyorgy checked and Lakerveld bet 600,000 on the {10-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{3-Hearts} flop. The {8-Clubs} turn checked through to the {5-Spades} river.

Gyorgy checked and Lakerveld overbet the pot to 3,500,000. Gyorgy paused for a moment before jamming for 20,700,000.

Lakerveld snap-called and Gyorgy rolled over his {k-Spades}{5-Hearts} for trip fives. Lakerveld then exposed his {a-Hearts}{5-Clubs} for trip fives as well but he had the better kicker. Lakerveld had the chip advantage on Gyorgy and he won the 2022 Malta Poker Festival Spring €550 Grand Event.
