Van der Fluit's Pat Hand Doesn't Hold

We just caught a nice pre-draw all in between WSOP bracelet winners Vinent van der Fluit and Max Pescatori. Van der Fluit won his just a week ago in the $1,500 Pot Limit Omaha tournament while Max Pescatori won two, one in 2006 and one in 2008.

From the cutoff Van der Fluit raised to 150, and the player on the button called. Brian Hastings gave up his small blind after which Pescatori moved all in. The total was 985 and Van der Fluit moved all in over de top. The button tanked for a bit before folding his hand.

Pescatori drew one card and Van der Fluit turned over his {J-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{3-Hearts}. This way Pescatori knew what he had to draw to, and he managed to hit his hand. The Italian pro turned over {10-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{3-Diamonds} and got himself a nice double up.
