Do You Meinders?

Level 2 : 50/100, 0 ante

Brian Meinders is one of the early risers at his tough table that includes Curt Kohlberg, Scott Fischman, Brent Roberts, David Peters, and now Brett Richey. Meinders is up over 40,000 after tangling up in a pot with Curt Kohlberg. On the river, Meinders bet 3,500 into a pot of close to that much as the board showed {10-} {X-} {K-} {8-} {8-}. Kohlberg gave him a long look before paying it off, and Meinders' {10-} {8-} gave him the winning full house and a decent early boost to his stack.

Meinders is probably just fine with the short-handed start to the day. In this past year's WSOP, he took 8th and 2nd place in back-to-back $2,500 short-handed limit events just three days apart.
