Big Pot Ends in Chop
Level 2
: Blinds 100/200, 200 ante
Arjan van Bavel was a new face on the table and open-raised to 500 from under the gun. Theo Steimer then proceeded with a three-bet to 1,100 from the cutoff. The action folded back to Van Bavel, who put in the extra 600 chips for a call.
The flop came 6♥5♥3♣ and Van Bavel check-called the 1,500 continuation-bet from Steimer. The 4♣ saw Steimer bet another 2,500 before Van Bavel put in the check-raise to 8,000. Steimer quickly called and the 7♦ river was dealt.
Van Bavel now promptly moved all-in for a massive 42,500 effectively. Steimer again called with haste and Van Bavel declared "board" as he tabled his A♥Q♣. Steimer played the straight on the board as well with J♠J♦ and the two chopped up the first all-in pot of the day.
