Van Wesemael Was So Happy (for a Second)

Level 7 : 250/500, 75 ante

From middle position, Sander van Wesemael made it 1,200 to go and he was called in two spots; the button and big blind Andreas Høivold.

Høivold checked blind before the dealer fanned {9-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}{5-Clubs}. Van Wesemael answered with a continuation bet of 1,700. The button called, and so did Høivold. Høivold checked blind again and the {J-Diamonds} hit the turn. Van Wesemael bet 4,000 this time around and just the button called, Høivold folded.

The {2-Diamonds} fell on the river and Van Wesemael bet 7,500. His opponent called instantly and Van Wesemael was happy to show his {Q-Spades}{10-Diamonds} for the nut straight. Unfortunately for him, he would get only half the pot as the button showed {Q-Hearts}{10-Hearts} for the same straight.

"I was so happy!" said Van Wesemael about getting called.

"I was also happy" said the button with a smile.

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.
