Saul Loses Big Pot in First Hand
Level 21
: 6,000/12,000, 0 ante
In the first hand after the redraw to the 10-handed final table, Marcel Vonk raised to 27,000 from early position, then Matthew Dames and Kevin Saul both called from the blinds. After the ![]()
![]()
flop, Saul led for 48,000 and only Vonk made the call.
Saul continued with a bet of 84,000 on the
turn and the Dutchman didn't go anywhere. The
river then completed the board and Saul fired a third and final bullet, worth 128,000. Vonk considered his options and eventually made the call, turning over ![]()
![]()
![]()
for a winning hand. "Sick call," half of the players on the table said.
