Day of Drama Done for Dutch Champion

Level 8 : 300/600, 75 ante
Noah Boeken
Noah Boeken

Noah Boeken, winner of both an EPT Main Event and a Master Classics of Poker Main Event, couldn't really get things going today. We just ran into him while he was making his way to the exit, as he muttered about a day full of drama being finally done.

He got it in with {5-}{5-} against {A-}{K-} and couldn't hold. His 15,000 stack is now in possession of someone else at the table. Boeken thinks about giving it another try tomorrow.

Peters Makes a Big Call

Level 8 : 300/600, 75 ante
Tobias Peters
Tobias Peters

Action folded to Kees van Brugge on the button and the Dutch grinder raised to 1,300. Small blind Tobias Peters made the call, Rob Strong folded his big blind.

The two had been chatting all day long, even in pots, but this time around it was rather quiet as the dealer fanned {10-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{3-Spades}. Peters checked, and called the 1,700 continuation bet that followed.

The {7-Diamonds} hit the turn, and instead of checking, Peters now lead out for 3,700. Van Brugge called in position.

The {6-Spades} completed the board and Peters bet 5,700. Van Brugge tanked for a bit before reaching for chips and raising to 14,500.

Peters leaned back in his chair and pondered what to do for a bit. He scratched his chin, leaned forward again, and eventually tossed in two black 5,000-chips to call.

Van Brugge nodded his head in defeat, showing {A-Clubs}{2-Hearts} not much later. Peters tabled {8-Hearts}{6-Hearts} and the table was in awe.

"You got balls!" Jer el Salsero commented.

"Nice call" said Van Brugge to his neighbor, which prompted the chatter between the two again.

"I was gambling the right way" commented Peters, and the two continued to discuss the hand.

Danchev Doubles

Level 8 : 300/600, 75 ante

Dimitar Danchev opened and his neighbor Yingui Li three-bet. Action folded back to Danchev and the former PCA champ made the call.

Danchev then check called 2,500 on {5-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{Q-Spades}, and check called another 6,000 on the {4-Diamonds} turn. The river came the {10-Diamonds} and Danchev checked with 15,050 behind. Li shoved all in and Danchev called after tanking for a bit.

Li showed his {A-Spades}{8-Diamonds} right away, Danchev took it down tabling {Q-Diamonds}{J-Spades}.

Van Leer Doubles

Level 7 : 250/500, 75 ante

Bracelet winner Anthony Spinella saw the action fold to him and he opened his button to 1,200. Small blind Rob Peetoom got out of the way, but big blind Erik van Leer three-bet. Spinella four-bet, and instantly called as Van Leer shoved all in.

Anthony Spinella: {A-Clubs}{K-Diamonds}
Erik van Leer: {9-Clubs}{9-Spades}

The board ran out {J-Hearts}{4-Spades}{2-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds} and Van Leer doubled his 24,000 stack.
