Schirp Looking Sharp

Martijn Schirp opened with a raise to 2,600 from late position, and it folded around to the big blind who checked his cards, gathered his chips, and reraised all in for 16,700 total.

Schirp peered over to see how much it would take to call, then quickly did so. Schirp turned over {A-Clubs}{J-Diamonds} and his opponent {A-Diamonds}{10-Spades}.

The board came {9-Spades}{Q-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{5-Clubs}, and another player has been eliminated here with about a half-hour left in Day 2a. Schirp adds more to his stack, pushing up to 297,000 after that hand.
