Level 4
: 100/200, 25 ante
Albert Hoekendijk, a regular on the Dutch tournament circuit with some nice cashes over in the United States as well, just clashed in a small pot with both long time online pro Erik van Leer and EPT and MCOP champion Noah Boeken. Guess who came out ahead?
From middle position, Van Leer opened for 625. Noah Boeken called on the button before Hoekendijk squeezed from the big blind to 2,100. Both Van Leer and Boeken called. Everyone checked on 
and the 
hit the turn. Hoekendijk bet out 3,100 and just Van Leer called, Boeken folded.
Hoekendijk checked the 
on the river and Van Leer checked behind after thinking about it for a bit. Hoekendijk showed 
and Van Leer instantly mucked.

Tobias Peters is sitting right along side Kees van Brugge, and the two have been chatting all day long. To say that it's one sided wouldn't be fair, but as per usual it's Tobias Peters doing most of it. The rest of the table is enjoying the banter as well, with Rob Strong, Jer el Salsero and Steve Warburton all joining in the conversation from time to time.
Just now, we saw the flopped getting checked through on

"Ow! I didn't even know Tony was in the hand!" Peters exclaimed.
Peters was informed he was still able to play his hand, though the was now known to Roecoert of course. Peters called while noting this was a first for him.
The
