Brummelhuis Doubles Deinum

Level 9 : 400/800, 100 ante

In the last hand before the break, we got to the table as we saw Foeke Deinum with 5,500 in front of him on a flop of {J-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{7-Hearts} acting out of the big blind. His opponent, Michiel Brummelhuis in the hijack, raised to 12,100. Deinum called.

The {J-Spades} hit the turn and Deinum checked. Brummelhuis thought for about 30 seconds and moved in for 18,550 effectively. Deinum called all in.

"You have a draw?" Deinum asked. Brummelhuis nodded.

Foeke Deinum: {A-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}
Michiel Brummelhuis: {A-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}

The river {6-Spades} was a blank and Deinum doubled.

Lavrijsen Busts Refos

Level 9 : 400/800, 100 ante
Raoul Refos
Raoul Refos

Dennis Lavrijsen, who's bust out with kings against aces we reported on not too long ago, bought back in. He's off to a better start now than on his first bullet.

From early position, Ivan Luca opened to 2,000. Dennis Lavrijsen 3-bet the hijack to 6,000 and on the button, Raoul Refos 4-bet shoved for 11,200. The blinds and Luca folded, Lavrijsen called.

Dennis Lavrijsen: {10-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}
Raoul Refos: {A-Spades}{Q-Spades}

The flop of {2-Clubs}{2-Spades}{7-Spades} gave Refos a flush draw but those outs were counterfeited with the {2-Hearts} on the turn. Lavrijsen just needed to dodge the aces, queens, and the case deuce. He did just that with the {K-Spades} on the river. Refos flush wasn't beating Lavrijsen's full house and the former said his goodbyes before departing.

Hundred Players Remain

Level 9 : 400/800, 100 ante

Just 100 players remain from the 168 entries so far today. That makes for an average stack of just over 50,000, good for 63 big blinds. Play is scheduled to finish in 35 minutes. Registration is open until the start of Day 2.

Small Pot Between Kuipers and Feenstra

Level 9 : 400/800, 100 ante

With just 15 minutes to play for the day, a lot of the players seem to take it easy. A lot of beers are out already, not a lot of big pots were seen.

Just now, Dennis Lavrijsen opened for 1,800. In the cutoff, Pim Kuipers called before Rens Feenstra 3-bet to 6,500 from the button. Both blinds folded and so did Lavrijsen. Kuipers called.

They checked down the board of {J-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{K-Hearts} and Kuipers showed {9-Spades}{9-Diamonds}. Feenstra tabled {10-Clubs}{10-Diamonds} and took down the small pot.

Bendinelli Back Doors Into Two Pair

Level 9 : 400/800, 100 ante

From middle position, Giuliano Bendinelli opened for 1,600. His neighbor Foeke Deinum called from the hijack, the big blind called as well.

The big blind checked on {A-Clubs}{K-Diamonds}{3-Clubs} and Bendinelli bet 2,600. Deinum called, the big blind folded.

Both players checked the {4-Spades} on the turn and {5-Clubs} on the river and Bendinelli showed {4-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}. Deinum mucked. Giuliano Bendinelli registered for this event late, since he was busy winning the €770 Omaha event earlier today.
