Verhagen Doubles Through Brummelhuis

Level 17 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante

The next clash of premium hands put Johan Verhagen at risk of bubbling the tournament. He had picked up the {K-Clubs}{K-Hearts} and faced the {Q-Clubs}{Q-Spades} of Michiel Brummelhuis. The battle of the Dutchmen went to Verhagen after a board of {10-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{10-Hearts} and hand-for-hand mode carries on.

Level 17 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante
Herman Hansen
Herman Hansen

Herman Hansen opened to 12,500 and Timothy Adams three-bet to 27,500 from one seat over. Hansen clicked to 42,500 and was called by the Canadian to see a flop of {8-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{10-Spades}. Hansen shoved for 100,000 and Adams called!

Hansen: {A-Spades}{Q-Diamonds}
Adams: {7-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}

The {9-Clubs} turn and {K-Diamonds} river both bricked and Hansen stumbled away from the table in disbelief after missing out the money by just a few spots.

Rae Cracks the Jacks of Metaal

Level 18 : 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante
Govert Metaal
Govert Metaal

Govert Metaal three-bet shoved for around 100,000 with the {J-Hearts}{J-Spades} and was called by Donald Rae with {A-Diamonds}{K-Hearts}. The flop {A-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{3-Hearts} was very bad news for the Dutchman, who only had two outs remaining. Neither the turn nor the river gave any help and Metaal headed to the rail.

Jansma Chops with van de Venne

Level 17 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante

Andre van de Venne moved all in for 48,000 from early position and Jan Jansma called all in for 11,000 out of the small blind. The latter was ready to leave and stood up while Per Munksgaard was still to make a decision. Then the Dane folded and Jansma flipped over {A-Spades}{2-Hearts}.

Van de Venne had that beat with {A-Diamonds}{J-Spades} but the flop came {4-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{3-Clubs}. The {K-Spades} turn bricked, yet the {2-Diamonds} river ensured a split pot. "So well played by me," Jansma joked and then stared at the board. "Oh no, I didn't even see the deuce."
