De Meulder's Heart Doesn't Pay Off
Level 17
: 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Matthias De Meulder raised to 23,000 and Moritz Dietrich three-bet to 60,000, which the Belgian called. On a flop of 
, De Meulder check-raised from 50,000 to 138,000 and Dietrich called before the 
turn saw a bet of 257,000 by De Meulder and a call by Dietrich.
The 
river paired the board and completed a possible flush draw- De Meulder moved all in for 440,000 and Dietrich snap-called to see the Belgian table 
for a busted straight draw. Dietrich had that beat with 
for a full house and claimed a massive pot.
"He showed a lot of heart," Sander van Wesemael said in table chat while Dietrich bumped his stack to more than two million.
