Huge Double-Up for Lybaert

Level 9 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

The action started with a player opening to 2,500 in middle position and Bart Lybaert, one seat over, making the call. After some thought, the player in the small blind raised it 16,000. The first raiser let it go and Lybaert three-bet all in for a stack worth 75,000. His opponent, with a similar stack, ended up calling after a long tank.

It was a flip situation as Lybaert, holding {a-Clubs}{j-Clubs}, was facing {9-Diamonds}{9-Spades} for his opponent, but the board {a-Diamonds}{j-Spades}{k-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{10-Hearts} gave Lybaert the winning hand and the massive pot.
