Good Call

Pieter de Korver
Pieter de Korver

On a board of {J-Hearts}{4-Spades}{J-Clubs}{5-Hearts}{9-Spades} and about 15,000 in the pot, Pieter de Korver was faced with a bet of 5,000 from his opponent. He didn't seem happy but made the call anyway.

His opponent simply mucked as de Korver showed {8-Hearts}{8-Clubs}. "That was good, you can't have it every time," de Korver said with a smile. With that, he added an extra 25,000 to his stack.
