Metaal "Plays Like A Goat"
Level 6
: 200/400, 50 ante
Left without chips, Govert Metaal went off to the reentry desk to buy himself back in.
"I played like a goat!" he laughed when we approached him, most likely not referring to the all-capital acronym. "I had ace-eight of clubs and a guy [Alex de Meijer] three-bet me. I had just 8,000; I can't really call so, well, I called," the Monaco resident said, grinning.
"So the flop comes ace-eight-jack and he checks behind. The turn is a ten, I bet 3,000 with 1,600 behind and he calls. On the river, the rest went in and he had ten-ten," Metaal heartily laughed. He will be back for his second attempt shortly.
