Aerts Slipping a Bit
Level 25
: 50,000/100,000, 12,500 ante
Pieter "XMorphineX" Aerts lost a pot to fellow chip leader Preben "prebz" Stokkan where the latter hit a set of eights on the river against flopped top pair of Aerts, but since each player was a bit cautious the pot wasn't huge.
Then, Belarmino "PaGaOVelhinho" de Souza opened to 200,000 in the hijack and Aerts made it 700,000 on his left. They took a 
flop heads up and de Souza check-called 495,000. Both checked the 
and de Souza bet 2 million on the 
river. That earned him the pot.
