Freek Scholten

Despite having about 60 big blinds after the previous clash with Ruijs, it all came tumbling down for Freek Scholten in three hands. First, he lost an all in against Tarmo Tammel, where Tammel had open-shoved for 30 big blinds with {a-}{9-}. Scholten had {j-}{j-} but lost the hand to lose half his stack.

The Dutchman then bluffed it off with {j-Clubs}{9-Hearts} and shoved the river on a {q-Spades}{7-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{4-Clubs} board. Kasper Mellanen, who had defended his big blind earlier in the hand, called it off with {a-Hearts}{4-Spades} to leave Scholten with 9 big blinds.

In the next hand, Martin Berge raised to 7,000 and Joris Ruijs called. Scholten shoved all in for 28,500, Berge isolated and Ruijs open-folded {2-Clubs}{2-Hearts}.

Freek Scholten: {6-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}
Martin Berge: {a-Hearts}{10-Hearts}

The flop was {j-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}{2-Spades} and Ruijs let out a chuckle. The {a-Diamonds} on the turn gave Berge the lead and the {q-Hearts} river ended Scholten's run in 27th place.
